The app has been developed by prominent experts on addiction treatment from universities in Norway, the USA and the Czech Republic. It simulates a real withdrawal cure used in therapeutic practice.

Smoking is an addiction and quitting is harsh. The majority of failures is caused by the lack of information on how our psyche works, therefore, thorough professional preparation and support are crucial while quitting. According to RCT, the chance to succeed with Adiquit is approximately six times greater compared to no professional aid.

Why does it work?

N

The tobacco addiction is one of the strongest. It shows physical symptoms caused by the effect of highly addictive nicotine in our brain and also mental symptoms like craving for a smoke in a specific situation or company (e.g. while having a cup of coffee or with smoking friends). With the help of Adiquit you will set up a tailored working strategy for such cases.

N

The effectiveness of quitting smoking without a professional aid is very low. Up to 95% of such attempts fail. If a smoker decides to start quitting with the help of a therapist, nicotine replacement or medication, the way becomes easier. Unlike the other available aids, the Adiquit app is at hand 24/7. You can call on it anytime you need. Therefore, it is as much as 30% more successful method.

N

Studies among smokers quitting with the Adiquit app proved long-term success rate of quitting to be almost 30%. That is as much as six times greater chance to succeed compared to quitting on your own.

N

Adiquit utilizes interventions in accordance with recommendations of WHO (WHO, 2003), guidelines of The European Network for Smoking and Tobacco Prevention (ENSP, 2017) and the Clinical Practice Guideline for Treating Tobacco Use and Dependence of the American panel (Fiore et al., 2008).
