Smoking Cessation Information for the Public

The B.C. government’s smoking cessation program helps eligible B.C. residents stop smoking or stop using other tobacco products by assisting them with the cost of smoking cessation aids such as prescription drugs or nicotine replacement therapy products (nicotine gum or patches).

There are two treatment options:

  1. Prescription smoking cessation drugs - you can choose one of the two drugs that are covered.
  2. Non-prescription nicotine replacement therapy products - you can choose one of the two products that are offered.
