17 Motivational Interviewing vs Brief Advice: Metanalysis

23 Nicotine Replacement Therapy: Adverse Effects Nicotine Gum: hiccoughs, gastrointestinal disturbances, jaw pain, and orodental problems Nicotine Patch: skin sensitivity and irritation (may affect up to 54% of patch users, but it is usually mild and rarely leads to withdrawal of patch use)
