Effectiveness of the Nicotine Patch in Suppressing Nicotine Withdrawal Symptoms in Women Versus Men - 1

Women typically have a more difficult time quitting smoking than men. Little research has been done to understand the differences between men and women that may cause this distinction. This study will assess whether the reduced effectiveness of nicotine replacement therapy in women is caused by gender differences in the withdrawal suppression induced by nicotine replacement therapy.
