Background
Researchers at the Moffitt Cancer Center hope to better understand how to help people quit smoking, while also modifying their alcohol use (primarily as it relates to their smoking). All participants will receive quit-smoking study treatment. For alcohol use, participants will define their own personal alcohol goal. Your drinking goal might be to reduce drinking (only drink on Friday and Saturday nights), drink more safely (not drink and drive), or even to stop drinking while making this smoking quit attempt. Alcohol goals are not determined by the study; Each participant will decide on their own alcohol goal.
This study seeks men and women who drink alcohol and who are motivated to quit smoking. Participants are asked to attend 10 study visits at the research site over a several month period and will be compensated up to $180 for participating in this study. All participants will receive nicotine replacement therapy at no cost to aid in quitting smoking as well.
