How Nicorette Gum Works?

When you stop smoking, you may experience withdrawal symptoms and cravings. When you chew Nicorette Gum it releases nicotine, which passes through the lining of your mouth and into your body, working to relieve these withdrawal symptoms.

Cravings may strike as your body adjusts to not getting its regular dose of nicotine. The amount of nicotine contained in Nicorette Gum helps stop the craving to smoke. 

Choose from two strengths of Nicorette chewing gum:

• 2mg Nicorette Gum – For those who smoke 20 or fewer cigarettes per day. It can also help you reduce the number of cigarettes you smoke and increase your smoke-free intervals.

• 4mg Nicorette Gum – For those who smoke more than 20 cigarettes per day, to help meet withdrawals of high serum nicotine levels as a result of heavy smoking.

Chew a piece of Nicorette Gum whenever you feel an urge to smoke – no more than 15 pieces per day. This should satisfy your craving. After 30 minutes the gum will be exhausted as all the nicotine has been absorbed by your body.

How to use Nicorette Gum

Nicorette Gum is a medicine so you use (or chew) it differently to ordinary chewing gum. When you chew Nicorette Gum it releases nicotine, so it’s important not to chew continuously.

This could release the nicotine too quickly and lead to it being swallowed. This may then result in you experiencing side effects such as an irritated throat, upset stomach or hiccups.

Understand how to use Nicorette gum effectively by following the Nicorette Gum chewing technique:

• Chew one piece of Nicorette Gum until the taste becomes strong. 

• Rest the piece of nicotine gum between your gum and cheek and wait for the taste to fade. 

• When the taste has faded, start to chew the gum again. 

• Repeat the process for up to half an hour, at which point the gum should lose its strength. 

• Dispose of the nicotine gum carefully
