English
Authors' recommendations: Smoking cessation interventions increased the quit rates among pregnant women, and decreased neonatal adverse outcomes as compared to no interventions. Nicotine replacement therapy was as effective as the cognitive behavioral therapy and did not seem to increase perinatal adverse outcomes. The Canadian Smoking Cessation Guideline Group recommends smoking cessation interventions for all pregnant, breastfeeding and post-partum women, and suggests counseling as first line therapy, and the use of NRT when counseling fails.
