First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026 · Updated 25 times
Summary
This study tests whether a special type of talk therapy (CBASP) combined with standard smoking cessation help works better than health education plus standard smoking help for depressed smokers. About 91 adults with current major depression or dysthymia who smoke at least 5 cigarettes daily will be enrolled. The goal is to see if the combined therapy improves quit rates and reduces depressive symptoms over 6 months.
