ABSTRACT
Introduction
Smoking and depression have a long-history documented of comorbidity.
Objective
The objective of this study was to develop and test a treatment that
could simultaneously achieve smoking abstinence and decrease depressive
symptoms in a group of heavy smokers with minimal/mild
depressive symptomatology.
Method
Sixty smokers were randomly assigned to three different treatment
settings. Treatment included a pre-abstinence phase, a psychological
treatment phase, a pharmacotherapy phase and a follow-up stage.
Smokers began the psychological treatment and the pharmacotherapy
two weeks before the day they chosen to quit smoking, and monitoring
was conducted over a year. Abstinence was confirmed by assessing
the levels of urinary cotinine.
Results
Using a linear mixed model with individual random effect, baseline
data was compared with subsequent assessments; 46% of the patients
achieved abstinence. For men, the three treatment settings significantly
reduced depressive symptoms and helped smokers to achieve abstinence.
For women, only the nicotine patch showed to be effective in
the reducing depressive symptoms.
Discussion and conclusion
Integral pre-abstinence treatment is effective in aiding smokers to
achieve smoking abstinence and improve depressive symptoms.
