The Cecil County Health Department works with community partners to offer tobacco cessation services to help Cecil County residents quit using tobacco. Services include a brief one-to-one single-session consultation, multi-session supportive classes, and funding support to access tobacco cessation medication aids. 

For State of Maryland resources, go here.

The Nicotine Replacement and Non-Nicotine Therapy Voucher Program can help pay for tobacco cessation aids by providing up to three vouchers for a combination of the following cessation aids:  Nicotine Gum (200 pieces), Nicotine Transdermal Patch (28-day supply), Nicotine Lozenges (1-6 weeks /1 to 2 pieces every 2 hrs) or Chantix™ (varenicline) (28-day supply) and/or Zyban (bupropion) (2 a day-7-12 week supply) as long as grant funding last. The process is simple, send your prescription to one of the participating pharmacies, then pick up your cessation medication at that pharmacy.

All residents who want to quit smoking are encouraged to contact the Maryland Tobacco Quitline 1-800-QUIT-NOW (1-800-784-8669). The Quitline offers FREE 24/7 phone and text message support to help you quit tobacco use and access additional cessation aids via mail.

The Nicotine Replacement and Non-Nicotine Therapy Voucher Program can be accessed without an appointment, Monday – Thursday, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., by sending your prescription to one of the participating pharmacies below.
