Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2019166368A1] The invention relates to a method and a device for a program for allowing smokers to quit smoking. The method has the steps of: ascertaining a buffer value (72) for virtual smoking products for a withdrawal day, ascertaining a storage value (74) for virtual smoking products for the withdrawal day, ascertaining a buffer fill time (76) for transferring the virtual smoking products from the storage value (74) to the buffer value (72) for the withdrawal day, and allowing the removal of one of the smoking products (10) from the housing (20) if the number of the virtual smoking products in the buffer value (72) is greater than null. The method and the device allow a smoker who is quitting smoking to use the permanently reduced quantity of smoking products during the withdrawal time (physical withdrawal) for "smoking situations which are critical to the individual" in order to teach the corresponding brain area to overcome critical smoking situations without smoking products (mental withdrawal).
