Many of us in clinical practice have been challenged with adults presenting with the diagnosis of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. Many of these adults have either diagnosed themselves through their own investigation or describe sometimes foggy histories of being diagnosed with this disorder as children. But somewhere, somehow, their treatment for the condition stopped, and now it has again become manifest.

                    [Summary] => When it comes to smoking cessation, the statistics can be disheartening. Nearly a quarter of all US adults smoke, and nearly two-thirds of them want to quit. But while about half try to kick the habit each year, only about  seven percent who try to stop on their own do so for good. Just as depressing, those who eventually quit typically try between five and seven times. What you may not know, however, is how cigarettes deliver nicotine and how you can best prescribe commonly available drug therapies to mimic that delivery system.

                    [Summary] => Smokers with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), a smoking-related illness that is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, may be able to quit smoking successfully with the use of a drug containing bupropion hydrochloride.


According to the results of a study published in the latest issue of the medical journal Lancet, bupropion hydrochloride SR  is an effective and well-tolerated aid to smoking cessation in smokers with mild to moderate COPD. 


Approximately 80 to 90 percent of all COPD cases are associated with smoking.
