Women are aware that quitting smoking during pregnancy and remaining smoke-free postpartum are important. However, beliefs that personal relapse risk is low and that medications are dangerous reduced enthusiasm for taking medication for postpartum relapse prevention.

For new mothers, studies conducted remotely with few scheduled appointments would reduce barriers to participation.
