“Fast facts” on Tobacco Use in
Canada

12
Tobacco kills 1 in 5 Canadians, or 45,000 people every year
(more than deaths due to traffic accidents, suicides, homicides,
drug abuse and HIV-AIDS combined) (Physicians for a SmokeFree Canada, 2003)
Economic impact of smoking estimated at $17 billion every year
(Rehm et al., 2006)
90% of people who smoke became addicted before age 18
(Fiore et al., 2008)
Tobacco-related disease accounts for at least 500,000 hospital
days each year in Ontario alone (MHP, 2009)
17.5% of Canadians age 15 and over are current smokers
(CTUMS, 2010)
Rates of smoking are much higher among sub-populations:
e.g.,90% - people with schizophrenia, 90% - people with opioid
dependence (Kalman, Morisette and George, 2005; NIDA, 2008)
Why should health
professionals get involved?
•
•
•
•
13
Tobacco is the leading cause of preventable death in the
developed world
70% of smokers want to quit, and the remaining 30% would
likely choose to not start, or would not want their child to
smoke (Fiore et al., 2008)
Just 3-5% of unassisted quit attempts are successful,
compared with up to 20% success for those receiving
cessation counselling and medications (Fiore, Baker et al.,
2008)
Outcomes of evidence-based cessation interventions are
comparable with other chronic disease management
(hypertension, asthma, diabetes) (West and Shiffman, 2007)
Understand tobacco dependence as a
chronic, relapsing disease and the need for a
paradigm shift

The Smoking Environment in
Canada
•
•
•
•
17.5% of Canadians (~5 million) 15 years
or older are current smokers
26 % are former smokers
54% never smoked
55.1% of daily smokers have their 1st
cigarette within 30 minutes of waking up.
75% within the hour!

Mortality Due to Tobacco
•
•
•
35,000-48,000 Canadians die from smoking per
year
– 100 infants/year
1 in 5 deaths are due to smoking
– Five times those due to car accidents,
suicides, other drug abuse, murder and HIV
combined!
1 in 2 smokers die from smoking related
diseases.
– 20% of smokers develop lung cancer
– 80% of lung cancer caused by smoking

Assessing
Tobacco
Dependence
Assessment
•
Components of Assessments
– History of smoking and quit attempts
– Level of nicotine dependence
– Withdrawal
– Reasons for smoking, reasons for wanting to quit
– Social environment
– Co morbidities – psychiatric, and/or other
substance use
– Intrinsic motivation and self-confidence
– Client’s goals, views of treatment, preference for
treatment
Abrams et al, 2007
30
All Smokers Benefit From
Proactive Assistance to Quit
Motivation to quit does not predict response to
treatment
Motivation can increase when effective
treatment is offered
Smokers with low motivation can achieve high
continuous abstinence rates
Irrespective of motivation, all smokers should
be actively offered assistance to quit
31
What is Motivational
Interviewing?
2002: “A directive, client-centred style of
counselling that helps clients to explore and
resolve their ambivalence about changing.”1
2009: “Is a collaborative, person-centered
form of guiding to elicit and strengthen
motivation for change.” 2

Prochaska and DiClemente, 1984
35
Preparation
Stages of Change
•
•
•
•
People do not move in a linear fashion
through the cessation process
Stages are arbitrary
May misguide clinicians to diagnose
clients at a certain level – too rigid
BUT: if you consider these points when
using the model it can be one of many
helpful tools to use
West (2005)
36
Change is not
something you do
to people, but
with people.
37
DSM-IV Diagnostic Criteria for
Nicotine Dependence
In the DSM-IV 3 or more of the following criteria are
required for a diagnosis of Nicotine Dependence:
1. Tolerance
2. Withdrawal. Requires daily use for at least several
weeks. A minimum of 4 withdrawal symptoms are
required. The withdrawal symptoms must “cause
clinically significant distress or impairment in social,
occupational, or other important areas of functioning.”
3. The substance is used in larger amounts or over a
longer period than was initially intended.
38
DSM-IV Diagnostic Criteria for
Nicotine Dependence (2)
4. Unsuccessful efforts to cut down, regulate, or
discontinue use.
5. A great deal of time spent obtaining the substance,
using the substance, or recovering from its effects.
6. Important social, occupational, or recreational
activities may be given up or reduced because of
substance use.
7. Substance use continues despite the individual's
realization that the substance is contributing to a
psychological or physical problem.
39
DSM-IV Criteria Dependence
Persistent desire or inability to stop
Most smokers want to stop, fewer than 5%
of unassisted attempts last a year or more
Continued use despite harmful
consequences
Most smokers are aware of health risks and
want to stop because of them, but feel
unable to do so
Withdrawal syndrome
Experienced by majority of smokers
Use of more of the drug or use for
longer than intended
40
Fast Facts: Smoking Cessation, Robert West and Saul
Shiffman, 2nd edition 2007
Many smokers try to cut down but cannot
maintain reduction; many learning to smoke
believe they will stop before the damage is
done but few manage to do so
DSM-IV Criteria Dependence (2)
41
Important activities forgone because
of the drug
Heavily dependent smokers may give up or
interrupt activities in non-smoking areas
Tolerance; diminished effect with
continued use
In the case of nicotine, tolerance is mainly to
the aversive effects
A lot of time spent obtaining the drug,
using it or recovering from its effects
Criterion related mainly to illicit drugs or
those that impair function (intoxicating
drugs)

Assessing Our Clients
•
43
Importance of Assessing
– Builds alliance / relationship – basic
ingredient of treatment
– Big picture of client
– Identifies co-occurring issues
– Opportunity to educate client –
“teachable moments”
– Ongoing process
– Collaborative approach
Assessments
Seven Key Components
1.Level of nicotine dependence/ severity of
withdrawal
2. Motivation
3. Past quit attempts and smoking history
4. Co- morbidities
5. Reasons for smoking, environment, triggers,
reasons for quitting
6. Social environment supports and barriers
7. Smokers’ preference
44
Assessment Components

Withdrawal Symptoms
•
Withdrawal symptoms can predict lapse and
relapse after cessation attempt
(Killen & Fortman, 1997; Shiffman et al, 1997)
•
Can help determine if client needs a
withdrawal management plan including
pharmacotherapy

medications and supports
Assessment Components
4. Co-morbidities
Other substance use / mental health issues
– Can have an impact on treatment planning
– Do they see a connection between their
other issues and smoking?
•
Medical issues / medications
– Will these have an impact on quit
attempts?
– Sometimes small adjustments in
medication can shift a client’s attitude
towards taking NRT
– Are they motivators or stressors?

(PERSEVERE)
Setting the Stage
•
Important aspects to consider
– Quitting is a process
– Automatic behavior: not always a conscious process
– A pack/day = 110,000 hand to mouth repetitions/year
– Linked with many behaviors: meals, alcohol, waking
up, coffee, environment – group homes, smoking
rooms in hospitals
– Linked with social relationships: breaks at work,
parties, friends houses
58
Step 1:
STRATEGIZE
1. Strategize
– Can take 1 session or can happen over several
– Involves developing a quit plan:
→ Tracking
→ Quit
smoking
date
→ Triggers, coping skills, plan for high-risk
events
→ Problem solving and coping skills
→ Support plan
→ Pharmacotherapy plan
60
Strategize: Psychological
•
•
61
Identify all positive supports
– Personal - partner, family, friends, colleagues
– Professional – physician, pharmacist, dentist,
nurse, etc
– Other support – Smokers’ Helpline, groups,
websites, self-help
Identify all negative influences
– Other smokers (partner, family)
– People who don’t want client to quit smoking
– Unhelpful “encouragement” to quit
Strategize – Cognitive/Affective
•
•
•
•
•
62
Personal relationship with cigarettes
Describe cigarettes as friend or lover
Can experience sense of loss when quitting
Help reframe this
thinking… abusive friend
or lover
Acknowledge these
emotions
Strategize – Behavioural
•
•
•
•
•
63
Relaxation strategies
Physical activity
Groups
Rewarding accomplishments
Tracking sheets / Self-monitoring
– Increase awareness of smoking behaviour
– Identify triggers, challenges
– Suggest which cigarettes will be easy and which will be
more difficult
– Begins to break the automatic smoking behaviour and
possibly reduces the number of cigarettes smoked
Strategize - Environmental
•
64
Smoke-free environments
– Make home and vehicle smoke-free
– Explore areas of home to restrict smoking
behaviour if entire home cannot go smokefree
– Work environment – avoiding smoking areas
– Other
Strategize - Biological
•
65
Pharmacotherapy
• If client is interested in medications, refer to
physician/pharmacist or provide information
• How much do they know about what is
available?
• What are the pros and cons of
pharmacotherapy?
• Who will help monitor this part of the quit plan?
Reasons for Change
Making a commitment to meeting your goal is important to
your success. Sometimes, it’s easy to forget why you’re
making the change, so write down your reasons and use this
as a reminder to yourself when things seem tough!
The most important reasons why I want to change are:

Setting a quit date:
• Provides specific date/goal to work toward
• Prevents delay in quitting
• Allows time to reduce, practice, refine quit
plan
• At a minimum, plan to meet with client 1 – 2
weeks before quit date and 1 – 2 weeks
after quit date

Engagement
Prevent Relapse (2)
•
91
If client had slips/relapsed:
– Assess what happened
– What can be done differently?
– What worked?
Example: Getting Together with
Friends on Saturday Night
•
Avoid the triggers or situations
– Miss this event while I’m trying to quit smoking
•
Change the trigger or situation
– Ask friends to smoke outside b/c I am quitting
•
Find an alternative or substitute for the cigarette
– When someone lights up, get support from other friends
– Get up and get glass of water or move to another part of
the room
– Might use nicotine gum or inhaler
92
Prevent Relapse (3)
•
•
•
•
Pharmacotherapy – long term use for those
that would benefit
Staying engaged in treatment / counselling /
groups when possible
What other supports will remain available
beyond treatment?
Planning for relapse
– What situations/triggers might lead to a slip or
relapse?
– Is there a plan on how to deal with those
situations?

Revisiting the Decision to
Change Worksheet
When you started the change process, you completed a “Decisional
Balance” of anticipated costs and benefits of changing and of continuing
the behaviour in the same way. Now that you have made some changes,
complete the decisional balance again noting the actual costs and
benefits that you have experienced, as well as things that you didn’t
anticipate as costs or as benefits. Then go back and compare your
responses with your previous Decisional Balance.

Readiness Ruler
Now that you have successfully made some changes, where would you rate the
importance of sustaining these changes? How confident do you feel now in
maintaining change? How ready are you to continue the journey of change? After
you have completed this sheet, go back and compare your responses with the one
you completed previously.

96
Follow-up calls
– Evaluation and counselling calls
How can the client re-engage quickly in treatment if he/she
relapses?
What are the red flags/warning signs that a client might
relapse?
– “One won’t hurt”
– “I’m sure I can smoke socially now that I’ve quit”
– “I’m stressed. Just this once to help me get through this”
– “I’ve been quit for long enough that I have control over
this”

Smoking as an
Addiction
What are Tobacco and Nicotine?
•
Tobacco - plant that
contains nicotine
– Two kinds: Traditional
and Commercial
•
Nicotine - one of the
major addictive
components in
tobacco
Nicotine is not known to lead to any diseases such as
COPD or cancer. It is the 4,000 other chemicals in cigarette
smoke that contributes to these diseases.
104
Tobacco and Carcinogens
•
More than 60
carcinogens are in
cigarette smoke
•
A minimum of 16
carcinogens are in

‘‘Why do people smoke . . . to relax; for
the taste; to fill the time; something to
do with my hands. . . . But, for the most
part, people continue to smoke because
they find it too uncomfortable to quit’’

Biological Aspects of
Addiction
– A biological need for a drug that arises because
of physiological adaptation to the presence of a
drug in the body and brain
– Body becomes dependent on the drug to be able
to function normally
– Stopping the drug leads to a withdrawal
syndrome which is unpleasant and motivates
person to continue using
– Not the complete picture

Guideline #7 for Treating
Tobacco Addiction
“Counseling and medication are effective when
used by themselves for treating tobacco
dependence.
The combination of counseling and medication,
however, is more effective than either alone.
Thus, clinicians should encourage all individuals
making a quit attempt to use both counseling
and medication”.
Fiore et al. 2008
113
Guidelines for Treating Tobacco
Addiction
Clinicians should encourage the use of medication by all patients
attempting to quit smoking except when medically contraindicated or with
specific populations for which there is insufficient evidence of effectiveness
(i.e., pregnant women, smokeless tobacco users, light smokers, and
adolescents).
Six (in Canada) first-line medications that reliably increase quit rates:
– Bupropion SR
– Nicotine gum
– Nicotine inhaler
– Nicotine lozenge
– Nicotine patch
– Varenicline
Consider the use of certain combinations of medications.

Developed by Peter Selby, MBBS, CCFP. This algorithm is based on: Bader, McDonald, Selby, Tobacco Control, 2009: 18: 34-42. Fiore MC et al., Clinical Practice Guideline:
Treating Tobacco Use and Dependence, May 2008. Gray, Therapeutic Choices: 5th Ed., 2007, Chapter 10: 147-157.
Reduce to Quit (RTQ)
Step 1: (0-6 weeks)
- Smoker sets a target for no. of cigarettes per day to cut down
and a date to achieve it by (at least 50% recommended)
- Smoker uses gum to manage cravings
Step 2: (6 weeks up to 6 months)
- Smoker continues to cut down cigarettes using gum
- Goal should be complete stop by 6 months
- Smoker should seek advice from HCP if smoking has not
stopped within 9 months
Step 3: (within 9 months)
- Smoker stops all cigarettes and continues to use gum to relieve
cravings
Step 4: (within 12 months)
- Smoker cuts down the amount of gum used, then stops gum use
completely (within 3 months of stopping smoking)
*N.B. for 2nd line medications (clonidine and nortriptyline), see
guidelines.
Nicotine Patch
•
•
•
•
24 hour continuous dose of nicotine
– 21, 14 and 7mg patches (applied every 24h)
16 hour continuous dose of nicotine
– 15, 10, and 5 mg (applied every 16h)
Off-label use – higher than 21mg dose for highly
dependent smokers
Potential side effects
– May cause sleep disturbance or nightmares
→
Remove before bed
– Skin irritation
– Clear patch
120
How to Use the Patch
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
121
Apply to clean dry area above the waist,
rotating site daily
Remove old patch before applying new one
Do not use lotion, moisturizing soap
Touch only small corner of adhesive
Ensure complete adherence of patch
Wash hands in water after application
Discard old patch out of reach of children,
animals – can be harmful
Nicotine Gum
•
•
•
•
•
•
122
Provides body with nicotine for 20-30 minutes
2 & 4 mg doses
Responds to the immediate urge to smoke
Oral gratification
Must be able to chew gum (i.e. no dentures,
TMJ)
Potential side effects
– Upset stomach, hiccups
→ Chewing too fast: review
proper use of gum
How to Use Nicotine Gum
2 mg
Use in combination with
patch as a breakthrough
medication; typically if smoke
<pack/day
4 mg
Use in combination with
patch or alone; typically if
smoke > pack/day
Chew one piece at a time, no more
than 1 per hour
Use every hour – if not in
combination with patch
Up to 20 pieces per day as needed
123
How to Use Gum (2)
•
•
•
•
•
124
Chew and park in between teeth and
cheeks
Absorbed via buccal mucosa
Repeat chew every minute or so
Each piece lasts approximately 30 minutes
Do not chew within 30 minutes of
caffeine/acidic products
“Reduce to Quit” (RTQ) Approaches
Who?
Smokers not ready or unable to quit abruptly
Goal?
50% reduction in daily cigarette consumption
between 6 weeks and 4 months of treatment
How?
Self-titrate to the level of nicotine to reduce
withdrawal symptoms. A reduction of
cigarette consumption should be continued
until complete cessation can be attempted
When?
125
Craving to smoke in order to prolong smokefree intervals for as long as possible
RTQ: Using NRT Gum
How long? • If such a reduction has not been achieved by
4 months, the patient should be further
counselled and/or re-evaluated.
• A quit attempt should be made as soon as
the patient feels ready – but not later than 6
months after the start of treatment.
• Regular use of the gum beyond 12 months in
the Quitting Gradually program is generally
not recommended.
How much?
126
Maximum of 20 pieces gum / day
Shiffman, Ferguson, & Strahs, 2009
Nicotine Inhaler
•
•
•
•
•
Small, cigarette-shaped inhaler
Satisfies sensory and ritualistic
aspect of smoking
One cartridge contains 10mg of
nicotine and 1mg menthol
Absorbed in oral cavity, throat and
upper respiratory tract by “puffing”
Potential side effects
– throat & mouth irritation, headache, nausea,
indigestion(<20%)
127
How to use the Nicotine Inhaler
•
Single cartridge equivalent to 4-5 cigarettes
- or 20 minutes of continuous use
•
•
•
•
128
Puff like cigar, not deeply into the lungs
May notice a burning, warm or cool sensation
when inhaling – OK unless it becomes
bothersome
Clean inhaler on a regular basis with soap and
water
Can use up to 6 cartridges/day – use as needed
Nicotine Lozenge
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
129
1 mg and 2 mg dosages
Max of 15 mg / day should be used
Slowly suck until strong taste is noticed
Rest lozenge between cheek and gum
Wait 1 minute or until taste fades
Repeat sucking
Each lozenge takes about 30 minutes to consume
Use only 1 at a time
Dependence Potential of
Nicotine Delivery Devices
•
•
130
Dependence potential tends to correlate
with time to peak concentration
Because the nicotine is delivered
differently, more slowly and at lower
doses in NRT, it is significantly less
addictive then smoking
Le Houezec, 2003
Dependence Potential of
Nicotine Delivery Devices
Reaches brain within 15-20 secs for
non-daily and less dependent and 30
secs for daily, dependent smokers

Effectiveness and Safety of NRT
•
•
•
•
•
Recent study of 2767 predominantly middle-aged
smokers not ready to quit: half were given NRT
(gum, inhaler or choice of therapy) and half were
given placebo for up to 18 months
Primary Outcome was six months of sustained
abstinence from smoking
Results overwhelmingly positive
NRT was well tolerated
Those using the NRT achieved six months of
sustained abstinence & most lasted beyond 1226 months
Moore et al 2009;
132
Cardiac Disease and NRT
•
•
•
NRT is safer than smoking
Cigarette smoke causes
– Increase in heart rate
– Blood pressure
– Decreased clotting time
– Polycythemia
NRT has not been associated with any increase in
cardiac events (heart attack, stroke)
•Hubbard,
133
R, et al. 2005
Long-Term Use of NRT
•
•
•
•
134
Most of the time people who use NRT to stop smoking
gradually reduce or stop NRT medicine without
difficulty
May use NRT long-term if needed
– Appropriate way of reducing the harm caused by
smoking
– Using NRT is always preferable to using tobacco
products
Long-term use of NRT products can help in reducing
morbidity and mortality
Preliminary evidence suggests that long-term use of
oral NRT may be associated with certain kinds of
cancer (Gemenetzidis et al., 2009)
Assessing Readiness to
discontinue NRT
135
•
Have you been in a situation in which you
would normally smoke but have been able
to refrain from smoking with ease?
•
Have you ever forgotten to put on your
patch or use your inhaler/gum/lozenge?
Pregnancy and Youth - NRT
NRT should be considered in pregnancy
and for youth if the likelihood of smoking
cessation justifies the potential risk of
using it by the pregnant patient or youth
who might continue to smoke.
Benowitz et al, 2000
136
Bupropion
•
•
•
•
137
Originally designed to treat depression
Shown to double one’s chances of quitting
Shown to minimize weight gain associated with
quitting smoking
Contraindications
– Seizure history
– Active eating disorder
– MAOI Medications
– Using Bupropion, sensitivity to Bupropion
How To Use Bupropion
•
•
•
•
•
•
138
Prescribed by Physician, Nurse Practitioner or
Dentist
Dose 150mg once daily for 3 days, increase to
150mg twice daily on day 4
8 hours between doses
Take as early in evening as possible
Monitor closely for changes in mood, suicidal
ideations
Can be used alone or in combination with NRT
Varenicline
•
•
•
•
139
Oral medication to quit smoking
Reduces withdrawal and craving
Prevents pleasurable effects of
smoking
Varenicline is a partial agonist (α42
nicotinic acetylcholine receptor),
which partially mimics the effect of
nicotine
Varenicline:
Drug Interactions / Precautions
•
•
•
140
Concomitant use of nicotine replacement
therapy
– not expected to increase cessation
– will increase adverse drug reactions
Does not affect and is not affected by CYP450
enzyme system
Reduce dose in severe renal impairment
Important Safety Information
Regarding Varenicline
Boxed Warning:
•
Highlights important recommendations for healthcare professionals
regarding information related to neuropsychiatric adverse events.
•
A warning regarding rare reports of hypersensitivity reactions, such as
angioedema and serious skin reactions, including Stevens-Johnson
syndrome and erythema multiforme.
Unintentional Varenicline Exposure:
•
Recent retroactive study assessed cases where varenicline was
unintentionally ingested, most common side effects were gastrointenstinal
and neuropsychiatric
•
Vast majority did not require admission to hospital
Varenicline and Psychiatric Side-Effects:
•
•
141
No clear evidence associated with depression or suicidal thoughts,
however twofold increase of self harm cannot be ruled out.
Varenicline may be associated with increased aggression and acts of
violence towards others
2nd Line Medications
•
•
•
•
142
Use at physicians discretion (first- line medications
unsuccessful)
Not approved as smoking cessation aids
Clonidine
– Anti-hypertensive
– Helps to reduce withdrawal
Nortriptyline
– Antidepressant
– Two studies demonstrated increased
abstinence rates
The Future?
•
•
•
143
Selegiline – Parkinson treatment
Vaccines – prevent nicotine from
reaching the brain
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
Multiple Quit Attempts
May Be Necessary
– >70% of US smokers have attempted to quit1
→ Approximately
46% try to quit each year
→ Only 7% who try to quit are abstinent 1 year later
– Similar percentages in countries with established
tobacco control programs (UK, Australia, Canada)2
→ >70% want to quit
→ 30%–50% try to quit each year
– Some smokers succeed after making several
attempts3
→ Past failure does not prevent future success
