On 16th December 2024, ASH hosted a Smokefree NHS Network online event on the smoking cessation medications varenicline and cytisine.
The webinar provided an overview of varenicline and cytisine, a case study from Greater Manchester on their use in trusts and a summary of the NCSCT training materials and briefings on these medications. There were also presentations from the Specialist Pharmacy Service who have published a new Patient Group Direction (PGD) template for varenicline and will be publishing one for cytisine early next year and Fresh who are working with local authorities and pharmacy colleagues to develop a regional PGD Pharmacy supply service for varenicline & cytisine, in the community.
