Naswar contains nicotine, and after using it for 20 years it is common to develop nicotine dependence.The tremors and discomfort when she does not use it are likely withdrawal symptoms rather than a sign that she cannot quit. The good news is that nicotine dependence is treatable. She should consult a psychiatrist who can help her quit using a structured plan, which may include nicotine replacement therapy (nicotine gum or patches)or medications such as varenicline or bupropion, if appropriate, along with behavioural counselling. Stopping abruptly may be difficult after such long term use, but with proper treatment and support, most people can successfully quit. If the tremors are severe or persist despite treatment, she should also be evaluated for other possible medical causes.

Hello. Naswar contains nicotine, which can cause dependence. After using it for such a long time, the symptoms you describe like tremors and strong cravings can happen when stopping suddenly. But the good news is that nicotine addiction is treatable. A psychiatrist or addiction specialist can help with a plan and, if appropriate, medications to reduce withdrawal symptoms. Please avoid returning to regular use without seeking professional help.

آپ کی بہن کا 20 سال بعد نسوار چھوڑنے کا فیصلہ بہت مثبت ہے، مگر کپکپی، بےچینی، چڑچڑاپن اور craving nicotine withdrawal کی علامات ہو سکتی ہیں۔ نسوار اچانک چھوڑنا عموماً خطرناک نہیں، لیکن علامات شدید ہوں تو psychiatrist سے assessment بہتر ہے۔ Nicotine gum یا patch بعض افراد میں مدد دیتے ہیں، مگر BP، دل کی بیماری، حمل اور دوسری ادویات دیکھ کر مناسب dose طے ہونی چاہیے۔ گھر والے تنقید کے بجائے تعاون کریں، triggers کم کریں اور follow-up رکھیں۔ صحیح plan سے یہ عادت چھوڑی جا سکتی ہے۔
