Description (French)
Ce projet explorera des approches alternatives de réduction des risques du tabagisme et d'abandon chez les personnes réfractaires au traitement en déterminant l'efficacité de l'offre d'un bon pour l'achat d'une cigarette électronique ou de cytisine (un produit de santé naturel pour l'abandon du tabagisme) aux personnes qui ont reçu un traitement de sevrage (thérapie de remplacement de la nicotine plus conseils comportementaux), mais qui ne sont pas parvenues à l'abstinence lors d'un suivi de six mois.
