dc.description.abstractAim: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of periodic free drug applications of theMinistry of Health on Smoking Cessation Polyclinic (SCP) and the success rates of thetreatment methods used.Material and Methods: A total of 1861 patients applied to SCP in a county state hospital inŞanlıurfa between January 1 and December 31, 2017 were included in this study. Patients notsmoke for at least six months were accepted as non-smokers. Each patient was followed up forat least six months. The data was calculated as number and percentage.Results: According to months the highest application was seen in December. In July andNovember, there was a significant decrease in the number of patients applying to SCP. It wasdetermined that 80.0% of the patients received behavior therapy, 20.0% receivedpharmacological treatment. Utilization of pharmacological treatment was the lowest in Julywith no patient and the highest in November with 96.8%. The rate of quitting withpharmacological treatment was 27.4% while this rate was 18.9% with behavioral therapy.Conclusion: The Ministry of Health's periodic free drug application policy has a direct impacton SCPs. This may be the reason for resistance in patients to smoking cessation with behavioraltherapy. Smoking cessation treatments should be provided throughout the year. It isrecommended that free drug treatments include all drugs and supply from pharmacies throughreport. We think that with these arrangements, the compliance of patients to treatment and theirdetermination to quit smoking will increase.en_US
