Study Summary

You are invited to participate in a research study at the VA Connecticut Healthcare System (West Haven campus) that examines whether a medication called galantamine can improve your learning and memory, and also help you to quit smoking. You have been invited to participate because you currently smoke cigarettes, and want to quit smoking. If you are eligible and agree to be in the study, your participation will last for approximately 8 weeks. To determine if galantamine (8 or 16 mg) is superior to placebo a) in reducing smoking self-administration in a human laboratory model and b) improving abstinence rates at the end of 4 weeks of treatment.

Primary Outcome

After overnight abstinence, participants will receive 10 tokens at the beginning of the smoking choice session. These tokens can be exchanged for money (0.75$ / token) or 2 cigarette puffs. The session starts with sample smoking of 2 puffs that allows subjective responses to me measured after abstinence. 15 min later, participants make their first choice, followed by 9 additional choices, every 15 minutes.
