If you are one of those millions of smokers who are looking to quit smoking, and have tried every one of those ways to stop smoking without positive results, then the stop smoking injection might just be the thing for you. Built on two FDA approved drugs - Atarax and Scopolamine, both of these substances are used to combat nicotine craving and therefore, help in reducing the desire of smoking.



Smoking leads to an eruption of a large number of nerve endings, which produce acetylcholine when you smoke, and for some time after you have quit smoking. Having these neurotransmitters (acetylcholine) acted upon in such a way that they do not send signals of nicotine withdrawal to your brain (and body) leads to your feeling normal without smoking.



The injection starts working within 24-48 hours after its consumption and therefore, injecting yourself just when you have quit smoking, can prepare your body to fight against all the side effects of nicotine withdrawal. It takes 3-4 days for the body to completely get rid of the last traces of nicotine and permanent blockage of the neurotransmitters might take around two weeks. Till that time, additional oral medication should supplement injection doses, in order to equip the body to fight the side effects better.



One of the most visible shortcomings of the injection is that it does not make the smoker realize about the actual causes of smoking and why it is harmful for him. Besides that, following up the treatment with lectures and interactive sessions on behavioral modification becomes a must if you are looking to take a shot to quit smoking.
