Tobacco Treatment
Our Tobacco Treatment Program helps Veterans stop using tobacco for good. Success at tobacco cessation depends on mastering nicotine addiction and changing tobacco use behaviors. Groups provide counseling and support to address both of these aspects of tobacco addiction. You are three times more likely to stop successfully if you use both medicine and counseling.
