Smoking is currently the world's leading preventable cause of death. Cigarettes are one of the most polluted medication delivery systems, and smoking tobacco is a chronic illness. Many ailments are still caused by smoking. Diseases such as a wide variety of cancers, respiratory conditions, and cardiovascular disorders can result in death from tobacco use. It has been demonstrated that nicotine increases a smoker's dependence on tobacco. Since nicotine is the primary cause of dependence in smokers, it is beneficial for them to consume nicotine from a different, more dependable source to help their efforts to quit smoking. Nicotine Replacement Therapy is a common term used to indicate these alternative sources of nicotine. The most popular and initial products created under nicotine replacement treatment are nicotine chewing gums, nicotine transdermal patches, nicotine lozenges, nicotine oral inhalers, and nicotine nasal sprays. NRT products containing nicotine are readily available in the market as an over-the-counter medication. Cessation of smoking lowers morbidity and mortality. It is unclear, therefore, how much and how quickly quitting smoking reduces the current death rates from smoking-related diseases.
