Tobacco control gains have not been universally shared. Though tobacco use prevalence in the US is declining overall, 15% of US adults (36 million people) continue to smoke (Jamal et al., 2016). The burden of tobacco use is disproportionately concentrated in select populations, including persons with substance use disorder (SUD). Over 75% of individuals in treatment for SUD smoke cigarettes (Guydish et al., 2011) and smokers with SUD face a disproportionate burden of tobacco-related disease and death (Aldridge et al., 2017; Apollonio, 2016; Hurt et al., 1996). Additionally, smokers with SUD who are in recovery have an increased risk of relapse, compared to non-smokers (Weinberger et al., 2017). Without identification and implementation of efficacious tobacco treatment interventions, smokers with SUD may enter treatment, achieve recovery, and remain at risk for relapse or death from tobacco-related causes.Despite this marked burden of tobacco use, there is a limited evidence base to guide smoking cessation treatment among persons with SUD. Though, among smokers without SUD, varenicline is more efficacious for smoking cessation than bupropion, nicotine replacement monotherapy, or placebo, early varenicline trials excluded smokers with SUD. Case reports and the FDA boxed warning of neuropsychiatric risk potential of varenicline added additional questions about varenicline safety among persons with SUD.
