Quit 4 You

Did you know that you are 4 times more likely to quit smoking using a combination of Nicotine Replacement Therapy and a local stop smoking service?

Quit 4 You is the Island's FREE Stop Smoking Service. It provides practical advice, friendly support and encouragement to anyone that wants to quit. More than a thousand people have already come to our services, taking the first step to a new start. If you are thinking about quitting smoking, there are lots of options available:

Quit4You Offers

• 1-to-1 appointments at many GP surgeries and Pharmacies
• Drop-In clinics in Douglas, Peel and Ramsey
• Free sessions in workplaces (1 hour "taster" sessions and groups)
• Vouchers for Nicotine Replacement Therapy
• Services for pregnant women (see Quit4Two service)

Regular sessions are available throughout your quit attempt. Appointments are usually face to face, but if you are unable to attend, your Advisor can arrange a call or text.

Quit4You sessions include discussing:

• Your smoking history and whether you’ve tried to quit before
• Your smoking patterns and nicotine dependence
• What you think might help you
• Treatment options
• Setting a quit date and preparing to quit
• How you are finding quitting
• Helping you to identify new coping strategies

If you would like to use Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT), your Advisor will need to ask you some medical information. If NRT is suitable, they can provide you with a voucher or prescription. This means that you don’t have see your GP. The NRT will be free, but you’ll have to pay prescription costs (if you’re not exempt from these). Quit4You can also provide information about other stop smoking medications (Champix and Zyban), but these are only available on prescription from your GP surgery.
