nicotine withdrawal prophylaxis

We have a smoking cessation order set which can be used for smokers while hospitalized, but there is no prompt to the provider to order. I am curious as to whether you have had success with this nicotine withdrawal prophylaxis at your institution? 

Please advise, and thanks,
