EFA Member Respiratory Health France hosted a webinar on 27 October, ahead of Tobacco-Free Month (Mois Sans Tabac), to help patients and the general public take stock of current advice for quitting smoking.
The webinar explored the many alternatives to tobacco including nicotine replacement therapy, behavioural and cognitive therapies, electronic cigarettes, meditation and more.

- An overview of different methods to quit smoking
- The role of smoking cessation in the management of respiratory diseases
- Whether electronic cigarette represent a safe way to stop smoking
- How to seek support
