WHEN TO USE CITIDARON®?
- CITIDARON® should be used in smokers who are willing to stop smoking1
- From the outset of treatment, the goal should be the permanent cessation of the nicotine-containing products use1
- CITIDARON® can be prescribed as a first-line treatment option for smoking cessation
- Current treatment options have therapy cycles that range between 7 and 12 weeks. This is a significant time burden and may be a barrier to their use in certain patients2,3
- CITIDARON® offers patients a 25-day treatment period1 which patients may view as a manageable commitment when commencing their quitting journey
