Why Quitting Smoking Is Crucial
Smoking is one of the leading preventable causes of chronic illness and early death, linked to heart disease, lung cancer, COPD, stroke, and more. The harmful effects of smoking don’t just impact the lungs they affect every organ in the body. At Baytown Internal Medicine, we understand that quitting isn’t easy, but with the right support, it is possible. Our smoking cessation programs are designed to help you break the habit and reclaim control of your health.
The Challenges and Symptoms of Quitting
Nicotine is highly addictive, and quitting often brings both physical and emotional challenges. Common symptoms of withdrawal include irritability, anxiety, headaches, increased appetite, and trouble sleeping. Many people also struggle with the behavioral habits and emotional triggers tied to smoking. If you’ve tried to quit before and relapsed, you’re not alone most people need several attempts before quitting for good. With the right tools and guidance, success is absolutely within reach.
How We Help You Quit Smoking
At Baytown Internal Medicine, our smoking cessation approach is tailored to your needs. We begin with a consultation to understand your smoking history, triggers, and previous quit attempts. Based on your goals and preferences, we may recommend a combination of nicotine replacement therapy (patches, gum), prescription medications (such as bupropion or varenicline), behavioral counseling, and support resources. We also provide education on managing cravings, handling setbacks, and building healthy new habits.
