Smoking cessation is the most important strategy to prevent mortality and premature death. Smoking is well known as chronic relapsing disease due to nicotine addiction. Pharmacotherapy combined with counselling is an effective method to quit smoking. From 2015 the government started to support medical burden for smoking cessation. However, there was no qualified smoking cessation document for Korean clinicians. Korean smoking cessation group has worked to improve the concern about smoking cessation and to develop standardized korean guideline for smoking cessation since a study group launched as a part of research society of Korea Academy of Tuberculosis and Respiratory diseases. Clinical document of smoking cessation was developed in 2017 supported by the Korea Academy of Tuberculosis and Respiratory diseases. Devoted pulmonologists in regard to smoking cessation were participated in developing clinical document for smoking cessation. This clinical document included not only the evidence based standard method for smoking cessation but also updated topics such as electronic cigarettes (heat-not burn), and recent government policies. Clinical document was based on qualified published guidelines and updated journals. In addition, questions and answers regarding important subjects were added in part of Q & A. This clinical document for smoking cessation will be helpful to treat smokers and to get skills related to quitting smoking because this document encompasses a wide range of fundamental methods for smoking cessation considering clinical situation of our country. Most of manuscript was summarized from clinical document for smoking cessation developed by Korean smoking cessation group in 2017.
