๐Ÿšญ October is Stoptober - your chance to take control of your health and quit smoking for good ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ”ฅ

Whether you've quit, started again, or switched to va**ng, itโ€™s vital to let your doctor know. Why? Because smoking directly affects the treatment and management of long-term conditions like:
โค๏ธ Coronary heart disease (CHD)
๐Ÿฆต Peripheral arterial disease (PAD)
๐Ÿง  Stroke or TIA
๐Ÿ’‰ High blood pressure (hypertension)
๐Ÿฉธ Type 2 diabetes
๐Ÿซ COPD and asthma (in adults)
๐Ÿ’ญ History of psychosis, schizophrenia or bipolar disorder
๐Ÿšฐ Chronic kidney disease (CKD)

Your smoking status plays a big role in your care plan. Donโ€™t keep it to yourself - tell your GP.

๐Ÿ’ฌ Want to quit? Help is out there:
๐Ÿ‘‰ Speak to your GP
๐Ÿ‘‰ Call the NHS Smokefree Helpline 0300 123 1044
๐Ÿ‘‰ Or visit: https://www.nhs.uk/live-well/quit-smoking/nhs-stop-smoking-services-help-you-quit/

Every day smoke-free is a win ๐Ÿ†

Pharmacists do so much more than dispense medicines. They offer expert health advice, help manage long-term conditions, provide vaccinations, and guide you on safe, effective treatments. ๐Ÿ’Š

This year, letโ€™s celebrate the vital role they play in keeping our communities healthy โ€” often as the first point of care.

๐Ÿšญ Va**ng vs Smoking

Switching from smoking to va**ng can significantly reduce exposure to harmful chemicals โ€” but va**ng is not risk-free. It still delivers ni****ne and other potentially harmful substances.
