Özet:

 Aim: Various methods are used in the treatment of cigarette addiction. It was aimed to compare the smoking cessation status of patients who applied for smoking cessation treatment and received varenicline treatment, nicotine replacement therapy NRT, and acupuncture treatment. Methods: In the study, 402 individuals who received varenicline treatment, NRT, and acupuncture treatment for smoking cessation were included. The sociodemographic data of the individuals, the results of the Fagerström nicotine dependence test, and the data on smoking cessation obtained during the 6 months after the treatment were retrospectively scanned from the patient files. Results: Of the 402 individuals included in the study, 60.4 n  243 were treated with varenicline, 28.1 n  113 received NRT, and 11.4 n  46 were treated with acupuncture. 63.4 n  255 of all the patients, 71.2 n  173 of the patients treated with varenicline, 56.6 n  64 of the patients who received NRT, and 39.1 n  18 of the patients treated with acupuncture quit smoking. It was found that smoking cessation rate was higher in the patients treated with varenicline compared to other treatments p 0.001, and varenicline was more effective than other treatments in very high addiction p 0.001. Conclusion: Varenicline treatment, NRT, and acupuncture treatment are all effective methods for smoking cessation. Varenicline treatment is more effective in smoking cessation than other treatments, and this efficiency is higher than other treatments in very high addiction.

 Amaç: Sigara bağımlılığının tedavisinde çeşitli yöntemler kullanılmaktadır. Sigara bırakma tedavisi için başvuran ve vareniklin tedavisi, nikotin replasman tedavisi NRT ve akupunktur tedavisi alan hastaların sigarayı bırakma durumlarının karşılaştırılması amaçlandı. Yöntemler: Çalışmaya vareniklin tedavisi, NRT ve sigarayı bırakma amaçlı akupunktur tedavisi alan 402 kişi dahil edildi. Bireylerin sosyodemografik verileri, Fagerström nikotin bağımlılık testi sonuçları ve tedavi sonrası 6 ay içerisinde sigarayı bırakmaya ilişkin veriler hasta dosyalarından geriye dönük olarak tarandı. Bulgular: Çalışmaya dahil edilen 402 kişinin 60,4ü n243 vareniklin, 28,1i n113 NRT ve 11,4ü n46 akupunktur tedavisi aldı. Tüm hastaların 63,4ü n255, vareniklin tedavisi alan hastaların 71,2si n173, NRT alan hastaların 56,6sı n64, akupunktur tedavisi gören hastaların 39,1i n18 sigarayı bıraktı. Vareniklin tedavisi gören hastalarda sigarayı bırakma oranının diğer tedavilere göre daha yüksek olduğu p0,001, çok yüksek bağımlılıklarda ise vareniklinin diğer tedavilere göre daha etkili olduğu p0,001 belirlendi. Sonuç: Vareniklin tedavisi, NRT ve akupunktur tedavisi sigarayı bırakmada etkili yöntemlerdir. Vareniklin tedavisi sigarayı bırakmada diğer tedavilere göre daha etkilidir ve çok yüksek bağımlılık durumlarında bu verim diğer tedavilere göre daha yüksektir.
