For those who want to quit smoking
Smoking cessation reduces the risk of getting sick for smokers and those around them. If it is difficult to quit smoking alone, you can also get smoking cessation support from medical institutions, pharmacies, and ward offices, so if you are smoking, please try smoking cessation.
