   Use the Stoptober resources

   Stoptober provides an ideal opportunity to engage with smokers. There’s a range of materials available to support healthcare professionals, including guidance on starting conversations and other campaign material that can be used in GP practices, pharmacies and hospital and community care settings.

   Pharmacy teams

   Pharmacy teams have a variety of opportunities to discuss smoking, such as when people are buying NRT, purchasing cough medicines repeatedly or when dispensing medicines for smoking-related conditions such as high blood pressure, COPD, diabetes and heart disease. Smokers interested in quitting may also ask about e-cigarettes, so pharmacy staff should update their knowledge on the evidence and products available, by completing the NCSCTonline training module.

   Primary care

   GPs should advise patients who smoke that the most effective way to quit smoking is a combination of behavioural and pharmacological support. Stop smoking aids (NRT, Champix and Zyban) can be prescribed for smokers who want to quit. While e-cigarettes are not currently available on prescription, GPs should provide advice to patients who are interested and may find them beneficial, in line with NICE guidance.
