Relieves and/or prevents craving and nicotine withdrawal symptoms associated with tobacco dependence. It is indicated to aid smokers wishing to quit or reduce prior to quitting, to assist smokers who are unwilling or unable to smoke, and as a safer alternative to smoking for smokers and those around them. It is indicated in pregnant and lactating women making a quit attempt.

12 years and over who smoke 20 or fewer cigarettes per day: use the 2mg lozenge whenever the urge to smoke is felt or to prevent cravings in situations where these are likely to occur. Place one lozenge in the mouth and allow to dissolve. Periodically, the lozenge should be moved from one side of the mouth to the other and repeated until the lozenge is completely dissolved. The lozenge should not be chewed or swallowed. Smokers willing or able to stop smoking immediately should initially replace all their cigarettes with the lozenges and as soon as they are able, reduce the number of lozenges used until they have stopped completely. Smokers aiming to reduce cigarettes should take the lozenge, as needed, between smoking episodes to prolong smoke-free intervals and with the intention to reduce smoking as much as possible. As soon as they are ready smokers should aim to quit smoking completely. Most smokers require 8 to 12 lozenges per day, not to exceed 15 lozenges. When making a quit attempt behavioural therapy, advice and support will normally improve the success rate. Those who have quit smoking, but are having difficulty discontinuing with the lozenge should seek advice from a pharmacist or doctor. Under 12 years: not to be used.

Smokers willing or able to stop smoking immediately should initially replace all their cigarettes with the gum and as soon as they are able, reduce the number used until they have stopped completely.

Relieves and/or prevents craving and nicotine withdrawal symptoms associated with tobacco dependence. It is indicated to aid smokers wishing to quit or reduce prior to quitting, to assist smokers who are unwilling or unable to smoke, and as a safer alternative to smoking for smokers and those around them.
It is indicated in pregnant and lactating women making a quit attempt.
If possible, the patch should be used in conjunction with a behavioural support programme.
Application should be limited to 16 hours per day.

Smoking cessation: Adults over 18 years who smoke 10 or more cigarettes a day; start on the 25mg patch (Step 1), and use one patch daily for 8 weeks. Gradual weaning from the patch should then be initiated. One 15mg patch (Step 2) should be used daily for 2 weeks followed by one 10mg patch (Step 3) daily for 2 weeks. Lighter smokers (i.e. those who smoke less than 10 cigarettes per day) are recommended to start at Step 2 (15mg) for 8 weeks and decrease the dose to 10mg (Step 3) for the final 4 weeks.
Those who experience excessive side effects with the 25mg patch (Step 1) which do not resolve within a few days should change to a 15mg patch (Step 2). This should be continued for the remainder of the 8 week course, before stepping down to the 10mg patch (Step 3) for 4 weeks. If symptoms persist advice from a health professional should be sought. Adolescents 12-18 years: as per adults, but the recommended treatment duration is 12 weeks. Smoking reduction/pre-quit: smokers are recommended to use the patch to prolong smoke-free intervals and with the intention to reduce smoking as much as possible. The starting dose should follow the smoking cessation instructions (see above). Smokers starting on the 25mg patch should transfer to the 15mg patch as soon as cigarette consumption reduces to less than 10 cigarettes per day. A quit attempt should be made as soon as the smoker feels ready. When making a quit attempt smokers who have reduced to less than 10 cigarettes a day are recommended to continue Step 2 (15mg) for 8 weeks and decrease the dose to 10mg (Step 3) for the final 4 weeks. Temporary abstinence: the patch can be used in those situations where smokers cannot or do not want to smoke for prolonged periods (greater than 16 hours). For shorter periods an alternative intermittent dose form would be more suitable (e.g. Nicorette Inhalator or gum). Smokers of 10 or more cigarettes per day are recommended to use the 25mg patch and lighter smokers (those who smoke less than 10 cigarettes per day) the 15mg patch. Under 12 years: not recommended.

For the relief of nicotine withdrawal symptoms as an aid to smoking cessation. For smokers able to stop abruptly, and also those wanting to cut down their cigarette use before stopping completely. It is indicated in pregnant and lactating women making a quit attempt.

Abrupt cessation: Adults (18 years and over): the initial dose is based on the individual`s nicotine dependence. The tablet is used sublingually with a recommended dose of 1 tablet per hour or, for heavy smokers (smoking more than 20 cigarettes per day), 2 tablets per hour. Increasing to 2 tablets per hour may be considered for patients who fail to stop smoking with the one-tablet-per-hour regimen or for those whose nicotine withdrawal symptoms remain so strong as to foresee a relapse. Most smokers require 8 to 12 or 16 to 24 tablets per day, not to exceed 40 tablets. Duration of treatment is individual but up to 3 months is recommended. The nicotine dose should then be gradually reduced, by decreasing the total number of tablets used per day. The treatment should be stopped when the daily consumption is down to 1 or 2 tablets. Adolescents (12-18 year olds): as adult dosage, but treatment should be used for 8 weeks before gradually reducing over 4 weeks. Smoking reduction: use the microtab between smoking episodes to manage the urge to smoke. Adults (18 years and over): a quit attempt should be made when the smoker feels ready but within 6 months. Adolescents (12-18 year olds): only after consulting a healthcare professional. Under 12 years: not to be used.
