TAKE THAT! NASTY NIC

Advantages: Stops the craving for nicotine
Disadvantages: Initially the spray is unpleasant to use

...is until I came across Nicorette Nasal Spray. To be honest I had got to desperation point when I found out about this product and I think I would have tried shovelling hot rhino poo up my nose if I thought it would have helped me quit. This is not a miracle cure and it will only be effective if you have really made up your mind to stop. What is miraculous however, about this product, is the instantaneous way it stops those awful cravings unlike other ...
...reduced/stopped almost immediately. Nicorette nasal spray solution is supplied in a dark glass bottle attached to a pump spray which is designed to be put into your nose. The active ingredient is Nicotine as well as Disodium Phosphate, Sodium Dihydrogen, Phosphate, Sodium Chloride, Citric Acid, Polysorbate 80, Beta-Ionine (aroma), Methyl and Propyl Parahydroxybenzoate (preservatives), Disodium Edentate (stabiliser) and water. This sounds like an ...

The heavy artillery of stop-smoking aids.

Advantages: One of the fastest acting nicotine replacements on the market.
Disadvantages: Horrible to use initially. Only takes away cravings - you still need to want to quit.

...be taken as gospel. Nicorette nasal spray is one of the strongest, fastest acting nicotine replacements on the market. The nicotine is absorbed into the bloodstream and hits the brain in about 15 minutes. The theory behind using the nasal spray instead of patches is that patches give you a constant, medium amount of nicotine in your blood, whereas cigarettes give you a massive hit within a minute or two, and then fade away over time. Patches therefore ...
...like heartburn and that horrible "empty-stomach" feeling, but don't do all that much for cravings. Using a spray gives you that "big-hit" (albeit a bit more slowly than cigarettes) so it's good for taking away those acute "got to have a fag right now" cravings. If you have "routine" cigarettes, say during your coffee break, try taking this 15 minutes before. It should help. The downside is that it's bloody unpleasant to use. For the first couple ...

Nicorette Nasal Spray is indicated for the relief of nicotine withdrawal symptoms as an ... more

aid to smoking cessation in adults and children
over 12 years of age. It is also indicated in
pregnant and lactating women (see section 4.6).  
If possible, Nicorette Nasal Spray should be used
in conjunction with a behavioural support
programme.   The patient should make every effort
to stop smoking completely during treatment with
Nicorette Nasal Spray.   Behavioural therapy,
advice and support will normally improve the
success rate.   This product must only be used
with other NRT products under the advice of a
healthcare professional.   Directions for use  1)
Remove the protective cap.   2) Prime Nicorette
Nasal Spray by placing the nozzle between first
and second finger with the thumb on the bottom of
the bottle. Press several times firmly and quickly
until a fine spray appears (up to 7-8 strokes).  
Important: Point the spray safely away when
priming it. Do not prime it near children or pets.
  3) Insert the spray tip into one nostril,
pointing the top towards the back of the nose.  
Press firmly and quickly. Give a spray into the
other nostril.   4) Put on the protective cap  
Adults (over 18 years of age)  1. The frequency of
use depends on the previous smoking habit of the
individual and the level of their nicotine
dependence.   2. On commencing treatment the
patient uses the spray to treat craving as
required, subject to a limit of one spray to each
nostril twice an hour.   3. A 50 ?l dose of
solution is sprayed into the nostril when the unit
is activated. This is described as a "spray" and
dosage is described using this term. Each spray
delivers 0.5 mg of nicotine, about half of which
is absorbed.   4. The daily limit of use is 32mg
of nicotine (64 sprays) which is the equivalent of
two sprays to each nostril every hour for 16
hours.   5. The method of use of the spray should
be according to the instructions.   6. The 3 month
course should take the following pattern:-   a.
For 8 weeks the patient uses the spray as
required, subject to the maxima described above,
to relieve craving.   b. After this period the
patient reduces usage until after 4 more weeks
treatment has ended. It is suggested that after 2
weeks into this period usage will have been
reduced by a half and usage be zero by the last
day. Spraying into a single nostril during this
period may be helpful in achieving this.   c.
Treatment should be limited to three months. The
patient should understand the aim of decreasing
the use of the spray to make a final break with
nicotine at the end of the course, and also accept
that for the first few days of the course nasal
irritation may be unpleasant.   Adults who use NRT
beyond 9 months are recommended to seek additional
help and advice from a healthcare professional.  
Adolescents (12 to 18 years)  The dose and method
of use are as for adults however as data are
limited in this age group, the recommended
treatment duration is 12 weeks. If longer
treatment is required, advice from a healthcare
professional should be sought.   See data sheet
for more information
