Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
The effectiveness of pharmacological approaches in helping teenage smokers quit has not been well established. While these approaches have been shown to be effective in adult smokers, there are limited studies on their effectiveness in adolescents. Therefore, pharmacological interventions may not work as well in this population.
