First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 06, 2026 · Updated 29 times

Summary

This study looks at whether increasing the dose of a stop-smoking medication or adding another drug helps people with pancreatitis quit smoking. All 45 participants start with the standard dose of varenicline. If they still smoke after 6 weeks, they are randomly assigned to a higher dose, a combination with bupropion, or staying on the standard dose. The goal is to see which strategy works best after 12 weeks of treatment.
