Summary
This study tested whether mailing free samples of varenicline or nicotine patches/lozenges helps smokers quit. 652 adult daily smokers were randomly assigned to receive a free sample of varenicline, nicotine replacement products, or no sample. Participants completed surveys and daily diaries for 6 months. The goal was to see if simply offering these medications without a formal quit program increases quit rates.
