Smoking cessation clinic


Which smoking cessation clinic in Taipei offers nicotine inhalers? I have previously experienced an allergic reaction to patches.
The clinic I visited only provided patches, so I would like to use a nicotine inhaler.
Are there any other clinics in Taipei that offer nicotine inhalers besides large hospitals? Or which unit should I contact for this inquiry? Thank you.
