In a large clinical trial, 1818 smokers were randomized to 12 week treatment
of Commit lozenge or placebo. Nearly half of COMMIT users remained smoke
free at 6 weeks.

  • Commit 4 mg significantly reduces weight gain associated with quitting1 * which can be a barrier to successful quit attempts.2
  • Reduction in weight gain occurs only during the 12 week Commit 4 mg regimen.

Leading smoking cessation experts believe that time to first cigarette is a better measure of dependence compared with number of cigarettes smoked.1
