nicorette gum yuck

Advantages: none
Disadvantages: Sickness burning still want to smoke

...I am a smoker and have been for quite a few years. I have tried many options of quitting and always faild due to will power more than anything. If you dont want to quit you wont unfortunatly. This product was probably the worst I have ever tried tho the Nicorette version is exepensive to say the least that is the first down fall but you can get cheaper versions that will only cost you from about a £1 poundland did do one but I havent seen them in there lately but if you do want to try them i would look for the cheapest version due to they taste the same which is nasty and they burn your throught and tongue and that nasty taste will last in your mouth for what seems forever. I cant say that they work due to the taste I wouldnt have one when I did get a craving I would much prefer to have a cigerette. If you do want to quit...

Review of Nicorette Freshmint Gum

Nicorette gum

Advantages: are a good help if you are trying to quit smoking
Disadvantages: are expensive

...My husband was the smoker and had been smoking up till just over a year ago. My husband had been smoking since the age of 12 and seemed like he was smoking 40 a day but he only took a few puffs of the cigarette and put it out and about 5 minutes later would light up another cigarette. My husband just decided to throw his tobacco in the bin and said that today was the day. Anyway back to the subject of the nicorette gum my husband has been on these for just over a year and first he got them on the nhs and then he started buying them which are £5.69 for 30 pieces at the 2mg low strength and at that price every couple of days (as my husband gets them every couple of days) it does get quite expensive and he is finding it hard to quit because he still feels he needs the nicotine after a year and is finding it hard not to have the nicotine...

Review of Nicorette Nicotine Gum Full Strength

Nicorette ? The jaw breaker?

Advantages: You can smoke (chew them) anywhere :O)
Disadvantages: You need willpower to stop chewing it!

...in front of you :O) and you had to keep putting it out to save for later. By the time you got down to a length that was normal for a cigarette it tasted so stale and nasty but you smoked it anyway! Can you imagine, all these kids with cigarettes as long as they were tall and thinking they were soooo cool. The advertising in those days reported smoking to be a good thing, a cool thing and a beneficial thing. I remember the famous ad with the slogan of ?You?re never alone with a Strand? Oh how times change! I finally ended up smoking the low tar cigarettes as, by this time, it was known to be dangerous. I smoked approximately 20 a day, which I was quite proud of really. It could have been a much larger number considering my past smoking record. I decided one day that it was time to ?give it up? I bought Nicorette chewing gum...

Review of Nicorette Nicotine Gum Full Strength

NICORETTE INHILATOR

Advantages: Cheap, Imitates cigarettes,
Disadvantages: Tastes horrible

...I had been a smoker for 10yrs and smoked 15 to 20 cigarettes a day. I decided to stop and used the nicorette inhilator. It works by providing you with nicotine which is the addictive componet of cigarettes. This way you get the nicotine you crave without any of the dangerous side effects assocaited with inhaling cigarette smoke. On the plus side its cheaper than most other stop smoking alternatives. I also found that it was benefical as its hand held and gave me something to do with my hands. As a smoker your used to having a cigarette in your hand and I feel that your missing out on this when you use the patches or tablet supplements. On the down side the inhilator doesn't taste very nice, but I found that I eventually got use to it. It also totally took away my craving for a cigarette which I didn't think it would be able to do...

Review of Nicorette Inhalor Nicotine Cartridges

Banish that cigarette with nicorette

Advantages: helps you to quit
Disadvantages: Its obvious your wearing it, can peel off

...the body is decreased. So there you go...quick overview of that... *****The Patch***** This method may not be suitable for everyone...it's the same with many things, but I would suggest to give it a go. This particular patch is 10mg in strength and is designed to last 16 hours. It is meant to be put on first thing in the morning and taken off before you go to sleep. There are two main makers of patches: Nicorette and Nicotinel, then there are companies own brands but as there are a few to list I've left them out. Nicorette range from 15mg (the highest they make) to 5mg (the lowest). 10mg is the other strength patch they make. ----Appearance---- Well the higher the strength the larger the patch. The 10mg patch is 5 1/2 cm in length x 4 1/2 cm in height. The patch is contained inside a white foil wrapping which can only be...

Review of Nicorette Nicotine Patches Medium Strength

Nicorette!They worked for me!

Advantages: I've quit!
Disadvantages: Slightly itchy, and whatever you do, don't fall asleep with one on!

...just paying it all in one go that makes it seem like a shock! The 15mg patches are huge, but just look like plasters with "nicorette" written on. You apply them first thing in the morning on dry clean skin, with no talc or moisturiser or oil on, and just leave them on until you go to bed! Easy peasy!You put them on your upper arms, upper chest or hips, taking care not to put them on the same place on two consecutive days, to avoid irritation. The first patch I applied gave me a sort of Nicotine rush, like having the first fag of the day when tired. But my body soon became accustomed to this and that was the only time it happened. One time I did fall asleep with the patch on, woke up in the morning and felt terrible the next day, very groggy and irritable, like I had fog in my head lol. So make sure that you follow the instructions...

Review of Nicorette Nicotine Patches Full Strength

NICORETTE INHALOR NICOTINE CARTRIDGES.

Advantages: You still have the physical feel of putting a fag in your mouth!
Disadvantages: The weaning off the inhalor. The price if not on prescription.

...Well, after years and years of smoking (about 30) and many failed attempts at giving up, the last one of which nearly made me go mad with withdrawal symptoms I am now into my 3rd month of not smoking. Thanks to this little white bit of plastic I have done better than I ever have and hopefully I will not go back to it this time. The Nicorette Inhalor is not the most trendy thing to be seen sticking out of your mouth but I have got quite discreet at having a little puff in restaurants and the such like as it is quite small. The withdrawal symptoms I have suffered in the past have not occurred this time. Once the cartridge in the inhalor is activated it delivers quite a strong blast of nicotine and the fact that you do feel that you have had a puff on a cigarette by physically putting the inhalor into your mouth also helps. You...

...I Have been a heavy smoker for 11 years, I really wanted to quit smoking and so many time I have tryed and failed, so this time i went to the doctors to get some help.

This is a sufficient amount to help with the withdrawal symptoms you get when you quit smoking. The inhalator also helps...

Review of Nicorette Microtab Nicotine Sublingual Tablets

the conveniant alternative

Advantages: prolong life, stop smoking
Disadvantages: need willpower, not the same as a cigarette

...Today i have decided to quit smoking. Although i have only been smoking for a relatively short time (3 months = 10 cigarettes a day) i thought it better to quit while young. At around 8AM i strolled down to my local co op and enquired if they sold nicotine gum or lozenges, typically at first the woman informed me with a swift 'no' then on a second inspection of the shelves behind her she procured a packet of 'nicorette freshmint 2mg gum nicotine'. I endevoured to pay the woman the sum of £5.72 for 30 pieces of the elixer that would hopefully one day make me a smoke free man. After recieving my change i placed the packet securely within my pocket and walked back home to see just what nicorette had to offer a hopefull quitter. Location : living room Time : 8.27 condition : desperate The packet was placed upon the cofee table...
