Smoking cessation is one of the most effective ways to reduce cardiovascular risk.

The benefits of smoking cessation may be minimised by obesity in those who have stopped smoking. Pharmacological treatment with medications such as nicotine patches and varenicline is useful to suppress weight gain during smoking cessation.
