“…Results indicate that the combination of pharmaceutical and behavioral interventions effective within the general population is also helpful for people with severe mental illness who smoke (Banham & Gilbody, 2010;Morrison & Naegle, 2010;Schreoder & Morris, 2010). Interventions that are intensive, featuring high doses of nicotine replacement therapy, multiple treatment modalities used in combination (e.g., telephonic quitline, group counseling, and nicotine replacement therapy), and longer durations of treatment (e.g., three to six months, as opposed to the typical 4 to 12 weeks) have been shown to be particularly effective (Chou, Chen, Lee, Ku, and Lu, 2004;Ferron, Alterman, McHugo, Brunette, & Drake, 2009;Morris & Neagle, 2010). Yet even in the most successful interventions, the majority of people living with severe mental illness do not quit smoking, and those who do tend to eventually relapse (Chou et al, 2004;Currie et al, 2008;Ferron et al, 2009;Griffiths, Kidd, Pike, & Chan, 2010).…”
