The Wisconsin Tobacco Quit Line will offer some extra help for those who want to stop using tobacco products.

The Quit Line has sent a free two-week starter kit of nicotine patches, lozenges, or gum to eligible tobacco users for some time.

Now, for a limited time, the Quit Line will offer eight weeks of free medication.

People can register for confidential Quit Line services 24/7 in any of three ways: call 800-QUIT-NOW (800-784-8669), text READY to 34191, or visit WiQuitLine.org.

Coaches with the quit line can help people develop a plan to change their tobacco use.
