SMART is the Scopolamine Medicated Anticholinergic Receptor Treatment, which comprises of the substances scopolamine and the antihistamine atarax. Not to be taken alone, you have to remain on the shot for a minimum of two weeks, during which time you must also be on the scopolamine patch for best effects. The shot is applied to your neck or to your buttocks, blocking your brain nicotine receptors and easing the physical withdrawal symptoms of the substance.
Before you embark on such treatment, you should have an extensive chat with your doctor because of the potential side effects of the shots. On its own, atarax is used in the treatment of allergies, itches and irritations. It is a weak painkiller and it also helps to reduce nausea.
However, its side effects are deep sleeps, dizziness, low blood pressure, dehydration and constipation. Scopolamine on the other hand is mostly employed in the treatment of motion sickness and intestinal cramping. It also causes dehydration and irritation as side effects, as well as sensitivity to light and difficulty urinating.
On the other hand, together and applied in the intravenous shot form, they have the soothing effect that can wean you off of nicotine in a way most other stop smoking treatments can't. As a result, you should seriously consider taking the treatment, especially if your doctor approves. If they don't, you will do yourself a favor and stick with any other stop smoking program they recommend to you. The doctors do know better, don't they?
