Make a quit plan

A quit plan helps you prepare for the moments when smoking or vaping feels hardest.

Your GP can help you:

• understand your triggers

• set a realistic quit date

• choose the right support options

• plan for cravings

• manage withdrawal symptoms

• review past quit attempts

• build strategies to stay smoke-free or vape-free

The Australian Government recommends planning ahead, getting support, managing triggers and using evidence-based tools to improve your chance of quitting successfully.

Support for quitting vaping

Vaping can also lead to nicotine dependence. If you are finding it hard to stop vaping, your GP can help you work through cravings, habits, stress triggers and treatment options.

Support can be useful if you:

• vape soon after waking

• feel anxious without nicotine

• have tried to stop before

• use vaping to manage stress

• want to reduce gradually

• want to quit completely

Nicotine replacement therapy and medicines

Nicotine replacement therapy can help reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms. It may include patches, gum, lozenges, sprays, inhalers or tablets. Prescription medicines may also be suitable for some people.

Your GP can discuss which options may be safe and appropriate for you.

Benefits of quitting

Stopping smoking or vaping can improve your long-term health and reduce preventable disease risk. Smoking harms almost every part of the body, while quitting can help protect your heart, lungs and overall wellbeing.
