Subject: Free Nicotine Patch Kits Available July 1 

 

Beginning July 1, 2008, the Massachusetts Tobacco Control Program will
offer free nicotine patch kits to smokers who call the State's Quitline
at 1-800-Try-To-STOP.  This offer is good through August 31, 2008 while
supplies last.

 

The kits include a two-week supply of patches, along with quit tips and
information on resources for smokers who want to quit.  Retail value is
approximately $50 per kit.

 

Research shows that people who use medications like the patch are more
than twice as likely to quit for good as those who try to quit on their
own.  

 

There are no income restrictions on this offer.  Most smokers will
qualify for free patches, though those with certain medical conditions -
pregnancy, recent heart attack, other medical conditions - will not
qualify.  

 

Please distribute this message to your clients, staff, and others who
may be able to take advantage of this free offer.
