Nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) and short messaging service (SMS)-based tobacco cessation interventions have demonstrated efectiveness in reducing tobacco use in many populations, but evidence is needed on which tailored treatments are most efcacious in meeting the complex medical and psychosocial factors confront‑ ing people living with HIV (PLWH) in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA).
