Nicotinell 2mg Mint Lozenge 144 Pack contains nicotine, which is one of the substances contained in tobacco. This medicinal product belongs to a group of medicines which are used to help you to stop smoking. When sucked, nicotine is released slowly and absorbed through the lining of the mouth. This medicinal product is used to relieve the nicotine withdrawal symptoms in nicotine dependency, as an aid to smoking cessation
Nicotinell 2mg lozenge is for smokers smoking more than 30 cigarettes per day. It can also be used by smokers smoking between 20 and 30 cigarettes per day depending on your preference.
Why it’s hard to cut out your cigarettes:
- Your body is addicted to the nicotine in cigarettes
- Smoking is a habit linked to everyday things you do, like eating
- Smoking is linked to your emotions, like being stressed
The addiction to nicotine is particularly important as you can experience nicotine withdrawal symptoms within 4-12 hours of your last cigarette. These symptoms include a craving to smoke, irritability, restlessness, anger, anxiety, headaches, dizziness and increased appetite. As Nicotinell products contain nicotine they can help relieve these symptoms.
Nicotine replacement therapies give you a small amount of nicotine through a product like gum. While you’ll continue to get some nicotine in your system, you won’t be exposed to any of the other harmful chemicals that are found in tobacco. Nicotine replacement won’t help with any emotional connection you may have to smoking. But it can help reduce your cravings and the physical symptoms of withdrawal so you can focus on breaking your mental addiction. Without something to replace the nicotine you were receiving through your smoking activities, you’re likely to find those cravings get the better of you. NRT releases enough nicotine to create the dopamine release that smoking used to give you, helping to curb the cravings and hold your resolve.
Trying to quit smoking without any type of replacement leaves you at the mercy of will-power alone, especially when faced with your common smoking triggers such as your morning coffee, social drinks, stressful situations and straight after a meal. Nicotine replacements give you an effective way to navigate these situations, as you learn to adjust to life without smoking.
