Archives of General Psychiatry, 06/05/09
Cosgrove KP et al. - The data suggest that higher beta2-nAChR availability persists up to 1 month of abstinence and normalizes to nonsmoker levels by 6 to 12 weeks of abstinence from tobacco smoking. These marked and persistent changes in beta2-nAChR availability may contribute to difficulties with tobacco cessation.
