• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Smoking rates have declined for decades, yet smoking remains the leading cause of preventable death in the United States, accountable for more than 400,000 premature deaths annually. Treating Addiction to Tobacco and Nicotine Products synthesizes the latest research to provide a comprehensive guide for assessing and treating tobacco use disorder.

With case vignettes that bring topics to life, this volume covers trends in cigarette smoking and its harms; the use, addictiveness, and health effects of non-cigarette tobacco products, including e-cigarettes; behavioral and pharmacological interventions; and needed systems change in health care settings.

Given the disproportionate incidence of tobacco use disorder among individuals with mental illness, special emphasis is placed on the effects of behavioral health comorbidity on the treatment of and recovery from tobacco use disorder.

Each chapter concludes with key clinical highlights, making this an essential resource for busy clinicians across various health care disciplines.
