Pocket Guide and Info on NRT Mouth Spray

Check out the new resources available from Tobacco Free Futures:

  1. Health Professionals Pocket Guide - information for health care professionals on how to support patients with a Brief Tobacco Intervention. Includes information on the 5As, motivational interviewing, different types of tobacco, pharmacotherapy etc...
  2. Patient information handout on the new Nicotine Replacement Therapy - Mouth Sprays - the mouth spray is currently not available on the AHS formualary - I have come across several patients though who have tried it or have questions about it.
Copies can be obtained through the Tobacco Free Futures online ordering.
