Title: Varenicline for Smoking Cessation in Heavy Drinking Smokers
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine whether extended pretreatment with varenicline (Chantix) is more efficacious for smoking cessation than standard pretreatment, how well varenicline is tolerated in heavy drinking smokers, and whether varenicline reduces alcohol consumption.

* Participants who have, or who have a history of, any clinically-significant neurological, gastrointestinal, renal, hepatic, cardiovascular, psychiatric, respiratory, metabolic, endocrine, haematological or other major disorder that, in the opinion of the investigator or their appropriately qualified designee, would jeopardise the safety of the subject or impact on the validity of the study results.

At screening and prior to enrolment, all patients will be offered a locally available free smoking cessation program as per local guidelines. Those who express the intention of booking for the cessation program together with those who, at screening, are planning to quit smoking in the next 6 months, will not be recruited in the study. Patients taking part in the study will be informed that they are free to quit smoking and withdraw from the study at any time. Any subject who decides to quit smoking will be directed to local stop smoking services.

Withdrawal Criteria:

Patients may be withdrawn from the study prematurely for the following reasons:

1. subject experiences a severe adverse event (SAE). The appropriate SAE electronic Case Report Form (eCRF) page must be completed.
2. If any deviations occur during the conduct of the study, which cannot be corrected. All protocol deviations will be fully documented and considered for their effect on study objectives. Deviations that could lead to subject discontinuation from the study include:

   * deviations which could affect subject's safety (e.g. illness requiring treatment\[s\]) which in the clinical judgement of the investigator might invalidate the study by interfering with the allocated test product or the willingness of the subject to comply with the study activities.
   * deviations involving the use of any nicotine/tobacco products other than the intended conventional cigarettes (in Arm A) or (in Arm B).
3. If the subject is uncooperative, including non-attendance. In these cases, efforts should have been made by the investigator to ascertain the reason and to ensure the subject's attendance as soon as possible.
4. Subject's personal request: the subject could decide, at any moment of the study, to stop his/her participation.
5. Female participant becoming pregnant.
