Nicorette Gum

Nicorette gum can help you stop smoking

Nicorette is a Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) product. It provides your body with just the amount of nicotine it needs to cope with withdrawal symptoms and cravings.

Together with determination, willpower & a positive attitude; Nicorette can help you break your smoking habit.

Directions

• Nicorette Gum is available in 2mg and 4mg strengths. Usually, the 4mg strength is recommended if you smoke 20 cigarettes or more in a day or are a smoker who has not been able to quite smoking using the 2mg strength. Otherwise you should use the 2mg strength.
• Usually, it is recommended that a piece of Nicorette should be used when the urge to smoke is felt. About 8-12 pieces per day, of either the 2mg or 4mg strength, will be adequate. No more than 24 pieces should be used daily.

For best results, use Nicorette Patch & Nicorette Gum together

Normally Nicorette Patch or Gum alone would provide enough nicotine to help most people control their craving for cigarettes. However, some people may find that even though they are using a form of nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) they still have intense or frequent cravings they find difficult to cope with. If you are one of these people you may benefit from combining Nicorette Patch use with Nicorette Gum.

• Each morning apply a Nicorette 15mg/16 hour Patch to an intact area of skin. The Nicorette Patch should be removed before going to bed. After applying the Nicorette Patch use Nicorette 2mg Gum whenever a craving occurs.
• For best results try to chew at least 4 pieces of Nicorette Gum every day. Most people will use 5-6 pieces. Do not use more than 24 pieces of gum.

The combination of Nicorette Patch and Nicorette Gum should be used for 6-12 weeks. After this time, if required you can gradually stop using NRT products (as described below):

1. Use the Nicorette 10mg/16 hour patch for 3-6 weeks and then use the Nicorette 5mg/16 hour patch for 3-6 weeks while using the same number of pieces of Nicorette Gum in a day that you have routinely used. Then when a patch is no longer needed, gradually reduce the number of pieces of gum until you no longer need them. OR
2. Stop use of the Nicorette 15mg/16 hour Patch and then gradually reduce the number of pieces of Nicorette 2mg Gum that are used until you no longer need them.
