Effectiveness: 5% (1 in 20) as per cold turkey
No evidence from trials that Lobeline can help people quit smoking
Lobeline is an alkaloid derived from the leaves of an Indian tobacco plant, and has been widely used in commercial smoking remedies. Its adverse effects include dizziness, nausea, and vomiting, and tablets and pastilles containing Lobeline may lead to throat irritation. The review found no adequate longterm trials which could provide evidence that Lobeline can help people stop smoking. Even short-term studies do not indicate a consistent effect on smoking behaviour.
