Bupropion Arm

270 African American adults received bupropion (150mg bid) for 7 weeks in addition to health education counseling.

Placebo Arm

270 African American adults received placebo for 7 weeks in addition to health education counseling.

    Raw proportions were used to estimate the verified cessation rate in each group and corresponding odds ratio along with its 95% confidence interval .
    group Description
    Based on our previous studies, sample size was determined a priori assuming a two-sided x2 test with a type I error rate of .05, a power of 80%, and a cotinine-verified abstinence rate of 15% in the placebo group and 25% in the bupropion SR group at week 26, with the assumption that those lost to follow-up would be imputed as smokers.

    The x2 test was used to determine whether there was a difference between treatment groups (bupropion SR vs placebo) in verified 7-day point prevalence abstinence at week 26, imputing the missing participants as smokers.
