High-strength nicotine replacement therapy to help heavier smokers stop smoking and manage nicotine cravings
Nicorette 4mg 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 more than 20 cigarettes per day, this high-strength medicated chewing gum helps relieve nicotine withdrawal symptoms and cravings with a refreshing mint flavour. The convenient 105-piece pack can also be used as part of combination nicotine replacement therapy where appropriate.
Overview
Nicorette 4mg Freshmint Nicotine Gum contains 4mg of nicotine (as nicotine resinate) to help relieve withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with stopping smoking. By replacing some of the nicotine previously obtained from cigarettes, it helps make quitting more manageable while avoiding the harmful tar, carbon monoxide and toxic chemicals found in tobacco smoke.
The 4mg strength is intended for smokers who smoke more than 20 cigarettes daily or who experience strong nicotine cravings. Used correctly with the chew-and-rest technique, the gum delivers nicotine through the lining of the mouth to help manage cravings throughout the day.
Stopping smoking is one of the best things you can do for your long-term health. Combining nicotine replacement therapy with behavioural support can significantly improve your chances of quitting successfully.

Common Questions
Nicotine replacement therapy supplies controlled amounts of nicotine without exposing you to the harmful substances found in cigarette smoke. This helps reduce withdrawal symptoms while you break the habit of smoking.
Trust & Pharmacist Advice
Stopping smoking is one of the most effective ways to improve your overall health. While nicotine causes dependence, the harmful effects of smoking are mainly caused by the toxic chemicals released when tobacco burns.
For the best chance of success, combine Nicorette with behavioural support, set a quit date and identify situations that trigger your smoking habit. Your pharmacist can help you develop a personalised quit-smoking plan.
If you have recently experienced a heart attack, severe heart rhythm problems or unstable angina, seek medical advice before using nicotine replacement therapy.

3. How do I use Nicorette Gum correctly?

4. How often should I use the gum?
Use one piece whenever you feel the urge to smoke, usually every one to two hours. As your cravings become less frequent, gradually reduce the number of pieces used each day until you no longer need nicotine replacement therapy.
5. Can I eat or drink while chewing Nicorette Gum?
No. You should avoid eating or drinking while chewing the gum because food and drinks may reduce nicotine absorption and make the treatment less effective.
