It is not too late to quit smoking when diagnosed with cancer

A reminder that even in those who are smokers and stop within 6 months of being diagnosed with cancer can increase their life span significantly. It is not too late to improve quality and time in ones life in smokers who quit. They found that quitting within 9 months also provided value but that 6 months was the ideal window to do so. #smokers #cancer #survival

Discuss what this means for you

Research can raise useful questions. A study or individual case report does not establish that a treatment is suitable for everyone. Discuss medications, supplements and treatment changes with your care team.
