Safety of Nicotine Reduction Strategy
In Brief
An observational study for Nicotine Dependence and Tobacco Use Disorder. Completed, enrolled 135 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This is a 2-year study involving the progressive reduction in the nicotine content of cigarettes. The investigators believe that at the end of the study smokers of cigarettes with progressively reduced nicotine content will be "weaned" from nicotine. At the end of the study, the result will be a decreased level of nicotine dependence. When smokers are again free to choose any smoking behavior, they will smoke fewer cigarettes and/or have a greater interest in quitting compared to a control group that smokes their usual cigarettes.
