Interventions
Participants will be prescribed NRT patch and one nicotine rescue method (e.g., nicotine gum, lozenge, inhaler) for use during the post-quit phase of the study. Participants will be given the choice between nicotine gum or nicotine lozenge, and will be instructed to use the rescue method as needed to reduce cigarette cravings
All participants who are medically eligible will be prescribed bupropion, which they will start two weeks prior to their quit day. Dosage will be 150 mg/daily for days 1-7 and 300 mg/daily (administered in two daily doses) until the 6-month follow-up.
Participants will receive 4 60-minute sessions of CBT telephone counseling for alcohol and smoking cessation.
Participants will be asked to provide video recordings of themselves taking carbon monoxide readings in order to confirm smoking abstinence, and breathalyzer to confirm abstinence from alcohol. Participants are asked to upload these videos to the study's secured server, and are provided monetary reward for videos that suggest smoking abstinence and alcohol abstinence.
