Attitudes towards smoking cessation interventions and alternative nicotine delivery systems among community pharmacists in Switzerland – a national cross-sectional study

According to this online survey distributed to pharmacists in Switzerland, basic smoking cessation interventions are common, but counselling on smoking cessation could be intensified. Although Swiss pharmacists are currently reluctant to offer alternative nicotine delivery systems as smoking cessation aids, they show interest in receiving training on such products. Greater financial incentives, targeted campaigns, clear decision aids, and improved interprofessional collaboration could help strengthen future smoking cessation interventions in Swiss community pharmacies.
