Dosage form
How to use
- This medicine is intended for use in the oral cavity. It is placed in the mouth where it dissolves, releasing nicotine which is absorbed by the body through the oral mucosa.
- Place a lozenge in your mouth and move it from one side of the mouth to the other from time to time until it has completely dissolved. This generally takes less than 20 minutes. You must not chew the lozenge or swallow it whole. If you have a lozenge in your mouth, you should not eat or drink.
- Start by using 8 to 12 lozenges per day. Whenever you feel the urge to smoke, you should place a lozenge in your mouth and allow it to dissolve.
- Use the lozenges in this way for up to 6 weeks and then gradually reduce the number of lozenges you use per day.
- As soon as you only need 1 or 2 lozenges per day, you should stop using them altogether. After that, you may still occasionally experience a strong craving for a cigarette. If this happens, you can use a lozenge again.
- The aim is to gradually replace some of your cigarettes with a lozenge. Once this has been achieved, you can then give up cigarettes completely with the help of the lozenges. Finally, give up using the lozenges.
- If you feel a strong urge to smoke, use a Nicorette lozenge instead of a cigarette to satisfy your craving. Reduce the number of cigarettes you smoke per day as much as possible. If after 6 weeks you have not been able to reduce the number of cigarettes you smoke per day, speak to your doctor or pharmacist.
- As soon as you feel able to do so, you should stop smoking altogether. Follow the advice above to stop smoking immediately. Do this as soon as possible. If your attempt to stop smoking completely has not been successful within 6 months of starting to use this medicine, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.
