Quitex

Quitex provides interactive support for people wanting to quit smoking. It will provide you with information about different ways to help you quit and how likely you are to succeed with each one. At the end, a copy of your quit plan will be emailed to you. You can print it out and take it to your GP or practice nurse if you wish.

Steps of the website:

• Step One – About you
• Step Two – How addicted are you to Nicotine?
• Step Three – Your previous attempts to Quit
• Step Four – Different ways to quit
• Step Five – Your decision
• Step Six – Planning ahead

We would like to email you with a follow – up survey after 6 weeks to see how successful you have been with your quit attempt and ask you what method you used. We would also like to follow up at 6 months and 12 months with email surveys. This is to help us to understand how your quit attempt has gone, to improve the website but also to generate some information for wider research on quitting smoking.

Quitex has been developed by experts from the Decision Laboratory at Cardiff University.
