Abstract
A method for eliminating an individual's tobacco smoking habit and associated nicotine dependence includes the step of gradually decreasing tobacco consumption over a first period of time until no further tobacco is consumed. This is done by first recording the individual's daily tobacco consumption. The day is broken down into consumption periods of one hour each. An alternative oral nicotine source is then progressively administered as a substitute for tobacco consumed during sequential consumption periods over each succeeding day for approximately two weeks until no further tobacco is consumed. Following a period during which the administration of the alternative nicotine source is maintained, it, too, is progressively eliminated over a period of approximately sixteen weeks.
