Overview

This study looked at 19 trials of smoking cessation programs for people in addiction treatment or recovery. The programs were effective in helping people quit smoking in the short-term, both for those in active treatment and those in recovery. However, the long-term success rate was lower. Interestingly, people who quit smoking during addiction treatment were 25% more likely to stay sober from alcohol and drugs in the long run. While quitting smoking during addiction treatment seems to be beneficial, new approaches are needed to help people stay smoke-free long-term.
