Get friendly, judgement-free support and nicotine replacement products to help you stop smoking for good
Stopping smoking is one of the best things you can do for your health, and you do not have to do it on your own. Our team at Porthcawl Pharmacy are specially trained to give advice and support throughout your journey towards becoming smoke free.
How the service works
To help break your nicotine addiction, we may recommend Nicotine Replacement Therapy, often called NRT. It comes in many different forms, such as patches and gums, so we can find the one that best suits you.
Your first consultation
This is a short, friendly chat with our trained pharmacist. Together you will agree a quit date, learn how the programme works and talk through the support aids available.
Your first week
You will come back to the pharmacy before your agreed quit date for another short consultation and to collect your first supply of NRT.
Week two onwards
You can return to us every week for advice, support and further NRT products, for up to 12 weeks.
Who it is for
The service is for anyone who smokes and would like help to stop. If you have tried before and found it hard, that is very common, and we will support you at your own pace without judgement.
To get started, speak to a member of our team in the pharmacy and we will arrange your first consultation.
