Stop Smoking Service at Carrington Pharmacy — Quit for Good With Expert Support
Quitting smoking is one of the best decisions you can make for your health, but doing it alone can be challenging. At Carrington Pharmacy, our Stop Smoking Service provides personalised, effective support to help you break the habit for good. Whether you’ve tried to quit before or this is your first attempt, our trained team is here to guide, motivate, and support you every step of the way.
Stopping smoking brings immediate and long-term benefits. From improved breathing to a reduced risk of heart disease, stroke, and cancer, the benefits start within hours of quitting. We’re here to make sure you get there — confidently and successfully.
Tobacco is one of the leading causes of preventable illness. Every cigarette contains harmful chemicals that affect your heart, lungs, circulation, and overall wellbeing. Quitting can:
Improve breathing and energy levels
Reduce the risk of heart disease, stroke, and cancer
Enhance skin quality and appearance
Improve mood and reduce stress levels
Save money — thousands of pounds per year in some cases
Protect loved ones from second-hand smoke
Whether you’re quitting for your health, your family, or your finances, you’re taking a powerful step forward.
Our Stop Smoking Service at Carrington Pharmacy is designed around you. We offer a structured, supportive programme that increases your chances of success significantly compared to quitting alone.
Your journey begins with a friendly, confidential consultation with one of our trained smoking cessation advisors. We’ll discuss:
Your smoking habits
Your past attempts to quit (if any)
Your triggers and challenges
Your goals and motivations
This helps us personalise your quit plan from day one.
No two smokers are the same, which is why your quit plan is tailored to your needs. It may include:
Setting a quit date
Identifying and managing triggers
Understanding nicotine cravings
Choosing the right nicotine replacement therapy (NRT)
Setting realistic and motivating goals
We will work together to ensure that your plan is achievable and aligned with your lifestyle.
Regular support is proven to make quitting more successful. You will receive:
Weekly check-ins
Motivation and encouragement
Guidance on withdrawal symptoms
Tracking progress and celebrating milestones
Adjustments to your quit plan when needed
We stay with you for the entire journey — from your first step to long-term success.
As part of your programme, we can supply a range of NRT options, including:
Nicotine patches
Gum
Lozenges
Nasal sprays
Inhalators
Mouth sprays
We’ll help you choose the most effective option for your lifestyle and nicotine dependency.

Irritability
Restlessness
Trouble sleeping
Increased appetite
Cravings
Difficulty concentrating
These symptoms are temporary and a sign that your body is healing. With the right support, they become manageable — and eventually fade completely.
