The answer is not a drug... the problem is a drug. Actually the problem is about 300 drugs (thats what is in a cigarette).
If you go to either the Phillip morris site or Pfizer (sp? , the drug company) you will get a very one sided look at their product (they want to sell it not kill it). Suicide may be a rare side effect ,though it certainly cures smoking, I'd rather cancer.
There are holistic and cognitive even hypnotic solutions. When my father quit he replaced the habit with gum, candy and walking, 20 years ago (he is still smoke free,,,,and in shape).
LSD (acid) and THC (marijuana) work by manipulating the neurons in the brain, do you really want to manipulate your brain? (you can't get a new one). A friend of mine was prescribed a drug that the drugs side effect was a cure for her problem, the drug was created for Parkinson's patients. She took the drug, it almost killed her and now she is screwed up for life.
Dennis , Good luck
