What are the take-home medications?
• The medications that are provided the day of your treatment are anticholinergic drugs that are prescribed in order to control the physical cravings that occur. The take home medications are comprised of FDA approved Donnatal and Scopace. These medications have been FDA approved for a variety of applications and their use for the treatment of smoking cessation is considered off-label. Such off-label uses of medications are common practice for a wide variety of medications. They need to be taken as instructed until they are completely gone, even though you may be feeling better and think your done with the therapy, take these medications, just as you would an antibiotic.
