Bupropion for the Prevention of Postpartum Smoking Relapse

Recruiting

Currently, more than half of all women who are able to quit smoking cigarettes during pregnancy start smoking again within six months after they give birth. We want to find out if the drug bupropion (a commercially-available medicine) can help women who quit smoking during pregnancy to continue not smoking after they give birth. All study visits can be completed either in-person or virtually.

I'm interested
