Nicotinell Chewing Gum Nicotine 2mg 24 Pieces – Mint

Description

Nicotinell Nicotine Gum delivers a rapid, therapeutic dose of nicotine as you chew, helping to ease cravings when they strike. The act of chewing also provides a useful physical distraction, giving your mouth something to do other than smoking while the nicotine absorbs over roughly 30 minutes.

Directions

There are two ways to use this product:

Program A – If you plan to quit smoking completely:

Chew one piece whenever you feel the urge to smoke.

Do not exceed 20 pieces per day.

After about 3 months, begin reducing how many pieces you use each day.

When you are down to 1–2 pieces daily, you can stop using the gum. Most users achieve this within 6 months.

Program B – If you cannot stop smoking before starting:

When you feel like smoking, chew a gum slowly instead of lighting a cigarette.

Increase gum use gradually (up to 6 months) while cutting back on smoking.

Do not exceed 20 pieces per day.

Once you have reduced smoking to a level where you can quit completely, switch to Program A.

If your cigarette intake has not decreased after 6 weeks, speak to your doctor or pharmacist.

Chewing Technique:
For best results, follow the “chew and park” method for at least 30 minutes:

Chew slowly until the flavour becomes strong.

“Park” the gum between your cheek and gum to allow nicotine absorption.

When the taste fades, chew again and repeat the cycle for up to 30 minutes.
