Nicotinell Gum helps you to give up smoking by relieving the desire to smoke, as well as some of the unpleasant withdrawal effects which smokers experience when they stop smoking.
By giving you control over your nicotine cravings, you can effectively deal with your withdrawal symptoms as they happen.
Each piece of gum delivers a controlled amount of nicotine into your body, enough to help satisfy the craving.When used correctly, Nicotinell Soft Gum can significantly help your chances of quitting smoking successfully versus willpower alone.
Nicotinell Gum releases a fast, therapeutic dose of nicotine that is absorbed into your bloodstream for up to 30 minutes, working quickly to reduce cravings.
