Nicorette

Nicorette is a branded over-the-counter palliative treatment which is used to ameliorate the withdrawal effects involved in quitting smoking. Originally available as a patch for topical application, it was later made available as a nicotine gum (composed of nicotine polacrilex)lozenge, inhaler, and nasal spray. All these products contain nicotine as the active ingredient and work by delivering this into the bloodstream.

Commit lozenges are an oral palliative aid in the cessation of smoking. Formats of both 4mg (for those who smoke their first daily cigarette within 30 minutes of smoking) and 2mg (for those who wait more than 30 minutes before the first daily dose of nicotine), are available. The lozenges, which are of a minty flavour, are meant to be taken orally at least nine times a day during the first two weeks after a nicotine user is willing to quit using tobacco products.
