Stop Smoking Medications – Now Available!

The Living Well Stop Smoking Service can now offer stop smoking medications for people in Bradford district who want to quit.

Following an assessment with a Stop Smoking Advisor, eligible people can now get a range of clinically approved medications, alongside behavioural support to help them quit successfully.

Available Medications

• Varenicline (Champix)
• Cytisinicline
• Bupropion (Zyban) (subject to suitability following assessment)

Smoking continues to be a leading cause of preventable illness and death, with a disproportionate impact on more disadvantaged communities across the district.

Stop smoking medicines are highly effective at helping people quit smoking by reducing cravings, managing withdrawal symptoms, and blocking the pleasurable effects of nicotine.

By combining medication with 1:1 support, we offer smokers the best possible chance of quitting for good, helping to reduce health inequalities and support people to live longer, healthier lives.

Please note the service is free but charges may apply if you usually pay for your prescriptions.
