Summary
The study is to understand whether distribution of two different supplies of nicotine patches
through a telephone quitline has an effect on quit rates. The two different supplies are four
vs. eight (in two separate four-week mailings) weeks of nicotine patches. The hypothesis is
that eight weeks will be slightly more efficacious but four weeks will be more
cost-effective.
