Higher abstinence rates after a quit attempt were reported in relation to use of e-cigarettes and varenicline. What’s more, higher abstinence rates were observed only in older smokers in relation to the use of prescription of nicotine replacement therapy, and only in smokers from lower socio-economic status in relation to use of websites.
