INTRODUCTION
Smoking addiction is the major global health issue all over the world. According to World Health Organization, smoking is "the second strongest and longest-running scourge [1]." According to research from the US State health Department, smoking remains addictive, nicotine remains an addictive component in cigarettes, also nicotine dependency remains akin to heroin also cocaine dependency. Here seem to be presently 2.2 billion smokers over age of 17 living in the globe. Provincial Tobacco Control Boards remained recognized in five districts in 2012 to allow for the execution of National Tobacco Regulator Package as the complete, counting follow-up operations, in the provinces [2]. The "Law Modifying the Law on Protection of Hazardous Consequences of Tobacco Products" was approved in 2018, 5728 amending Law No. 4208. Most structure that makes in Pakistan, along with all interior areas, become smoke-free in May 2019 [3]. According to epidemiologic studies, 73 percent of smokers desire to leave, and 46 percent have tried to quit at least once. It is critical to provide medical and mental health help to persons who desire to quit smoking. In Pakistan, services for nicotine dependency management but also smoking cessation are available.
Brief recommendations and discontinuation support lines, and also smoking cessation hospitals featuring usage of cognitive conduct treatment too pharmacological treatments administered through skilled professionals, are mechanisms of system that aid smokers quit [4]. Our hospital's smoking cessation facility was originally managed both by the psychiatry also family medicine sections until 2019, when it was moved to the family medicine clinic. My goal would be to provide sociodemographic information, analyze services offered, in addition assess smoking cessation achievement of our SCC at Mayo Hospital in Lahore [5].

METHODOLOGY
This retrospective research remained conducted on 5.118 smokers hospitalized to Mayo Hospital in Lahore between May 2020 and April 2021.
Since the study conducted retrospective, there has been no requirement for ethical clearance, hence authorization was obtained just from the General Secretariat. This research comprised hospitals that are members of UHS and share a shared computerized database: DHQ hospital data was obtained from the General Secretariat system, and data were evaluated retrospectively in similar time since this remained our primary SCC. The research includes all records from that time period. Statistics software was used to calculate the incidence and mean values. Chisquare and student t tests remained being used to evaluate associated variables; p 0.06 remained measured as statistically substantial.

RESULTS
In 2021, a total of 5.118 individuals was sent to SCC associated through BPHU General Secretariat. Here must have been 3 While 789 (52.3 percent) of smokers accepted to SHETRH had a high school diploma or more, 584 (43.9 percent) had less than a high school diploma. Seventeen individuals (2.3 percent) were uneducated. Males had considerably greater levels of schooling than females (p = 0.0001). Researchers discovered that degree of education declined considerably swelling age upon admission (p = 0.0001). Whereas 818 (61.3%) of individuals who visited the SCC reported unmarried, 96.9% (n = 2.345) had at least one smoker in the household. There has been no important connection (p = 0.786) among marital status also the sum of smokers in the family. Whenever average age of smoking initiation remained asked, it was 18.426.21 years (minimum 8, maximum 61 years). Female smoking beginning began at 19.396.77 years, whereas male smoking starting started at 17.785.73 years, also it remained statistically substantial (p = 0.0001). Whenever educational level and age at that individual began smoking when examined, this remained discovered that age during which smoking started was greater in high school and above educational respondents (p = 0.0001).

DISCUSSION
In Pakistan, 29. percent of people aged 14 and above use tobacco products. This figure equates to 15.9 million individuals. A study discovered that male gender and senior age are useful in smoking cessation. Rendering to Pakistan Statistical Institution, males (42.6 percent) consume tobacco more than females (15.2 percent) [6]. The vast majority of tobacco product users (95.9 percent) smoked cigarettes, with only 0.9 percent using hookahs. Once all hospitals were included in the current analysis, most of the respondents (58.4 percent) remained male. In a study, an investigator discovered that 61.3 percent of cases that came to cigarette polyclinic were man. The research included 128 participants, 31.9 percent of whom remained female and 68.4 percent of whom were male [7]. Whenever SCC admission records (from family medicine) were evaluated, males showed people are more likely to be hospitalized (63.4 percent).
Because males smoke at a higher rate than females in our nation (which mirrors global trends), the number of male individuals hospitalized is projected to be higher than females [8].

CONCLUSION
Smoking cessation cure is a specialized cure that includes cognitive behavioral treatment, motivation, and pharmaceutical cure. Smoking Cessation Clinics remain greatest substantial clinics for smoking cessation and disease deterrence caused by cigarettes. The frequent deployment of SCCs is critical for both personal and society well-being. As a result, relevant certification trainings would remain conducted, and additional SCCs must remain established to enable additional educated accessibility to smoking cessation options.
