Nicorette 2mg Freshmint Nicotine Gum 30 Pieces

Low-strength nicotine replacement therapy to help lighter smokers stop smoking and manage nicotine cravings

Nicorette 2mg Freshmint Nicotine Gum is a nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) designed to help adults stop smoking or reduce cigarette consumption before quitting completely. Suitable for smokers of 20 cigarettes or fewer per day, this medicated chewing gum helps relieve nicotine withdrawal symptoms and cravings while providing a refreshing mint flavour. The convenient 30-piece pack is ideal for those beginning their quit-smoking journey or for use while travelling.

Overview

Nicorette 2mg Freshmint Nicotine Gum contains 2mg of nicotine (as nicotine resinate) to help relieve nicotine withdrawal symptoms and reduce cigarette cravings when stopping smoking. By replacing some of the nicotine previously obtained from cigarettes, it helps make quitting more manageable without exposing you to the harmful tar, carbon monoxide and thousands of toxic chemicals found in tobacco smoke.

The 2mg strength is recommended for adults who smoke 20 cigarettes or fewer each day or who have lower nicotine dependence. When used correctly with the chew-and-rest technique, nicotine is absorbed through the lining of the mouth to help manage cravings throughout the day.

Using nicotine replacement therapy together with motivation and behavioural support can significantly increase your chances of quitting smoking successfully.
