Összefoglaló. A dohányzás jelenleg is az egyik legjelentősebb népegészségügyi probléma hazánkban. Az orvosi szakterületek többségében előkerül a dohányzásleszokás-támogatás kérdése. Ezért az orvostársadalom számára az aktuális gyógyszeres terápiás ismeretek összefoglalása hasznos lehet. A jelen közleményben a leszokástámogatás elsődlegesen választandó gyógyszeres terápiáját tekintjük át a legújabb összefoglalók és irányelvek szerint. A gyógyszeres lehetőségek közül jelenleg a vareniklin és a nikotinpótló terápia választandó elsőként, nemcsak a leszokás, hanem az ártalomcsökkentés tekintetében is. A legújabb kutatási eredmények szerint a kis dózisú vareniklin hatékonysága megközelíti a standard adagolás hatékonyságát, ugyanakkor kevesebb mellékhatás jelentkezik. A nikotinpótló kezeléssel kapcsolatban ki kell emelni, hogy egyre több tudományos evidencia áll a transdermalis és oralis készítmények kombinálása mellett, szemben a monoterápiával. A kis dózisú vareniklin, illetve a nikotinpótló terápia akkor is segítséget nyújt a naponta elszívott cigaretták mérséklésében, ha a kliens nem kíván leszokni, de a dohányzás ártalmait csökkentené. A nikotinerg rendszeren kívül más módon ható gyógyszerek szerepe is felmerült. Egyre több összefoglaló támogatja az antidepresszívumok használatát a nikotinfüggőség kezelésében. Ezek közül a bupropion használatával kapcsolatban van a legtöbb adat, amelyről tudjuk, hogy kombinálható a nikotinpótló terápiával és a vareniklinnel is. A gyógyszeres terápiát minden esetben tanácsos magatartásorvoslási módszerekkel, illetve adherenciát fokozó intervenciókkal kombinálni. Ezenkívül a szakellátási szint bevonása is javasolt, hogy a lehető legtöbb segítséget kapja meg a páciens a leszokáshoz. Orv Hetil. 2021; 162(40): 1610–1618. Summary. Smoking is still one of the most significant public health problems in Hungary. The issue of smoking cessation support comes up in most medical specialties. Therefore, a summary of the current pharmacotherapeutic knowledge may prove useful to the medical community. In this paper, we review the first-line pharmacotherapy for smoking cessation based on the latest summaries and guidelines. Regarding the smoking cessation agents, varenicline and nicotine replacement therapy are currently the primary choice, not only in terms of cessation but also in terms of harm reduction. The results of previous studies suggest that the efficacy of low dose varenicline is close to that of standard dosing, with fewer side effects. With regard to nicotine replacement therapy, it should be emphasized that there is an increasing scientific evidence for the combination of transdermal and oral formulations as opposed to monotherapy. Low dose varenicline and nicotine replacement therapy also help reduce the number of cigarettes smoked daily if the client does not want to quit but would reduce the harms of smoking. The role of medications acting in other ways than the nicotinergic system has also emerged. An increasing number of reviews support the use of antidepressants in the treatment of nicotine addiction. Of these, most data are available on the use of bupropion, which is known to be combined with nicotine replacement therapy and varenicline. In all cases, it is advisable to combine pharmacotherapy with behavioral therapy as well as interventions that increase adherence. In addition, it is also recommended to include specific therapeutic interventions in order to get as much help as possible for the patient to quit smoking. Orv Hetil. 2021; 162(40): 1610–1618.

Evidence shows that successful treatment of nicotine addiction improves mortality, despite age at cessation. The extreme hazards of smoking stress the importance of patient-physician discussion that is a significant factor in tobacco cessation. Discussion alone and other methods such as “cold turkey” have proven to have low efficacy at cessation which has led to the development nicotine replacement therapy to help augment cessation.

AimsAudit carried out to assess whether or not patients had been asked about their smoking status during admission onto an acute adult mental health ward, as well as if they had received any smoking cessation advice or offered nicotine replacement therapy.Background•Physical health outcomes in patients with serious mental illness (SMI) are consisitently worse than the general public This is due to multiple factors; adverse effects of medication (including metabolic syndromes with psychotropics) as well as poor lifestyle factors such as smoking status•Patients with an SMI are 3–6 times more likely to die due to coronary artery disease. 70% of patients in inpatient psychiatric units are smokers, a strong independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease.•Smoking cessation is a potent modifiable risk factor that can prevent mortality and reduce morbidity.MethodA cross-sectional review of all 34 inpatients across four general adult acute psychiatric wards.Patient records were explored using the Aneuran Bevan Health Board admission proformas to identify evidence of smoking status and whether advice was offered.ResultSmoker but not given cessation advice n = 13 (38%)Not asked about smoking n = 11 (32%)Smoker and given cessation advice n = 4 (12%)Non-smoker n = 6 (18%)ConclusionPatients were asked about their smoking status the majority of the time (68%) but provision of advice or nicotine replacement therapy was only done in 14% of potential smokers (identified smokers and patients not asked about smoking status).A consideration to be taken into account is that on admission, a patient's physical health status may be unknown, with the additional difficulty of a patient's acute distress complicating the physical examination, smoking status and modification of patient's smoking status may not be the highest priory in that context.Data regarding asking about smoking were different amongst wards, potentially signifying differences between assessors willingness to ask about smoking status.There is a lack of smoking cessation literature available on the wards and patients are often unaware of what options are available to quit smoking.The audit simply determined whether or not assessors were documenting smoking status, it does not measure the quantity or quality of smoking cessation advice provided.Further quality improvement projects should be launched, with focus groups as the intial step at further investigating inpatient smoking rates, as well as attempting to reduce them in a more systemic way.
