| Résumé : | [BDSP. Notice produite par INIST e4XCR0xA. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. Objectives. This study examined tobacco use prevalence, types of tobacco used, interest in quining, and prior quit attempts among perisons in methadone maintenance treatment. Methods. Counselors collected surveys from 84% (550 of 655) of all clients in a 4-county inetropolitan area. Results. Most clients (77%) smoked cigarcties. Of the 59 former tobacco users, only 6 reported using a cessation pharmacotherapy to quit. Three quarlers of the current smokers had attempted to quit at least once, with an average of 5 attempts. Most smokers (80%) were "somewhat" or "very" micrested in quitting. Conclusions. The quit ratio among methadone maintenance treatment clients was 12%, compared with 50% nationwide. To reduce morbidity and mortality, cessation interventions must be developed and disseminated. |
