Niquitin them cigarettes!!

Advantages: clear, work for me, small, come in stages
Disadvantages: itching, numbness to inserted area

I have recenly tried to quit smoking which i have finally succeeded, but before i managed this i always struggled in finding a product which will suit me and help me. Gum tasted horrible and made me want to throw up, the inhalors available didnt help me at all, so i thought i would try patches. These patches have helpmed me loads, i only wore them for a week but anyone that needs them longer the product has three stages to slowly withdraw the nicotine ...
...your mind and body. The only problem i had myself was putting the patch on my arm, as it made my arm go numb and very uncomfortable, but then i inserted it onto my upper thigh and the only problem was itching which lasted only 10 minutes. I would recommend these patches to anybody trying to quit, it depends on the person if it works but it certainly worked for me, and there also see through for people who consider the look!! So enjoy and good luck ...

Smokers have a weapon

Advantages: Cheaper than cigarettes
Disadvantages: Itching, pulls on muscles

Well I tried these very patches around two and half years ago and I have given up smoking, my last cigarette was January 6th 2006. I started off on the heavy strength. The patches themselves last a full day from morning till night. The main problem I had with them was when your body craves the nicoteen you feel your energy pulling the nicoteen out of the patch. There is also an itching sensation. It is advisable not to wear them to bed as they can ...
...you really want to stop they are a great help in the battle against smoking. My program included patches and the support of a nurse and I have never been tempted since. The patches are transparrent and are a little on the large side. they are only advisable for heavy smokers as it is possible to have a nicoteen overdose. Well without these and the support of the nurse I'd probably still be a smoker. ...

My cigarette, my friend

Advantages: A longer life...I killed my 'friend'...he was trying to kill me!
Disadvantages: None

...design do not reflect the Niquitin patch....and the numbers provided are random. However Niquitin helped me and many others quit...no point in reviewing a Niquitin patch.....Nicotine is my friend and it is harmless...so please buy this patch because it is very effective and nothing else can compare. You need willpower (coming from a 40 a day for 5 years smoker) and this Niquitin patch is the best assistant to help you quit! © Cobainkurdt Also ...

Small, discreet but terrible

Advantages: Small. Discreet
Disadvantages: Can leave a rash, expensive

Well I still havent stopped smoking and to be honest these patches didn't help much at all. I smoke extremely heavily and would like to stop, however I havent found any replacement therapies which have helped. These patches come in three different strenghts. 21mg, 14mg and 7mg. These patches are the strongest brand on the market at the moment which can make them seem more appealing to heavy smokers, however I wouldnt advice them for light smokers. ...
...the dose you start with. I would then advice you to cut down on the patches every two months. Also ensure that you dont smoke while wearing one of these patches as you can be liable to nicotine poisoning which can make you extremely ill. If you do overdose on nicotine I would advice you to take the patch off immediately and consult your local GP or pharmacy. I however found these patches terrbile. They gave me a terrbile rash and I found that they ...
