- Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To discuss the real world effect of bupropion hydrochloride sustained-release tablets and psychological intervention as well as WeChat publicity and follow-up on smoking cessation. METHODS: Totally 283 subjects were divided into two groups according to their own wishes: 84 people chose WeChant and psycholigical intervention, and were defined as control group; 199 people chose bupropion hydrochloride and WeChant and psycholigical intervention, and were defined as treatment group. The one-month smoking cessation rate and weight changes of the two groups in 3 months was compared, and the factors affecting the smoking cessation rate were analyzed. RESULTS: The success rate was 57.8% in treatment group, and the success rate of the control group was 10.7%. There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups. The average weight gain was 2.6 kg in the treatment group, and in the control group it was 3.5 kg, with no statistically significant difference. The presence of depression, intervention pattern, smoking-related disease, the number of cigarettes smoked per day, and the need to quit smoking for family members and the readiness to quit were statistically siginificant factors. The faliure rate of smoking cessation in depressed smokers was 7.772 times that of non-derpessed smokers, and it was4.492 times that of people with smoking related deseases. The failure rate of smoking cessation in people smoking more than20 cigarettes a day was 4.090 times that of pepople smoking less than 20. The failure rate in smokers without family requests of quiting smoking was 0.463 times that of those with requests; the failure rate in smokers without readiness was0.274 times that of those with proper readiness. The failure rate in control group was 14.292 times that of the treatment group. CONCLUSION: Bupropion hydrochloride sustained-release tablets + psychological intervention + WeChat platform promotion can significally increase the rate of sucessful smoking cessation. Factors affecting the success rate of smoking cessation are depression, intervention methods, smoking-related deseases, the number of cigarettes smoked, family requirements and smoking cessation preparations.
