Our Stop Smoking Program works at the molecular level to block the nerve impulses that nicotine withdrawal creates, and thereby Relieves the Physical Withdrawal Symptoms.
The medicines have been used for over 100 years in anesthesia prior to surgery, testing of the eyes, for prevention of nausea, and poison antidotes. The medicines are ATROPINE and SCOPOLAMINE. They are members of a family of drugs called anticholinergics - which block the neurotransmitter acetylcholine.
Atropine and scopolamine attach to the millions of extra nerve endings created by chronic smoking, and block the excess acetylcholine that is produced while smoking and immediately after quitting. Blocking the nerves prevents the messages associated with nicotine withdrawal from being sent to your brain and body organs, somewhat like the way Novocain blocks pain messages when you are at the dentist's office.
ATROPINE & SCOPOLAMINE BLOCK
YOUR PHYSICAL WITHDRAWAL SYMPTOMS
Your initial dose is supplemented with two weeks of follow-up anticholinergic medicines to maintain therapeutic effectiveness while nicotine is removed from your body. Although it only takes approximately three days for your body to break down nicotine, the symptoms remain until the acetylcholine concentration and receptor numbers return to normal levels - about two weeks.
Since nicotine also influences the memory and pleasure center of your brain, there is a Psychological side to the addiction that needs management.
Freedom Stop Smoking Centers helps you with the Psychological cravings by providing extensive help and resources.
