SJW has been noted to attenuate signs of nicotine withdrawal in mice.7 In an open-label study of SJW for tobacco cessation involving 24 cigarette smokers, SJW at a dose of 900 mg per day for 3 months was associated with a 24% (9/37) smoking abstinence rate at end of treatment. Overall, the treatment was well tolerated with no significant adverse effects noted.8,9

I’d be curious to know the rate of people who just quit without the treatment.

Average national quit rate among folks who make an attempt is under 10%, but 30%, while improved, is a long way from a majority.
Also in the 30% quit club: gums and patches.
This could be a tool, but I think understanding the nature of addiction and compulsion is a more complete and supportive approach.

It was a joke, a play on the letters in Saint John’s Wort.
