Fast nicotine craving relief to help you quit. NICORETTE(R) Gum is a medicine that can help you stop smoking by reducing withdrawal symptoms and nicotine cravings. NICORETTE(R) Gum is a form of Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) that can help double your chances of quitting successfully. NICORETTE(R) Gum provides a lower level of nicotine to your blood than cigarettes and allows you to slowly decrease your body's need for nicotine. It works as a temporary aid to help you quit smoking by reducing nicotine withdrawal symptoms such as irritability, frustration, anxiety, difficulty in concentration and restlessness. Without these powerful urges for the cigarettes you "need", getting rid of the "habit" cigarettes becomes much easier. The good news is that NICORETTE(R) Gum contains no tar or carbon monoxide, and therefore doesn't present the same medical risks as cigarettes. It can be used to quit immediately (Stop to Quit) or to quit gradually (REDUCE TO QUIT(R)) by reducing the number of cigarettes you smoke each day. For people who have not been able to quit before, the NICORETTE(R) REDUCE TO QUIT(R) program may increase the chances of quitting by over 4 times. To increase your chances of quitting, use with a stop smoking support program as identified in the enclosed User Guide. NICORETTE(R) Gum can help double your chances of quitting successfully. Although quitting smoking is preferable, NICORETTE(R) Gum can also be used as part of a REDUCE TO QUIT(R) program in which it is used to reduce the number of cigarettes smoked prior to quitting in smokers who are not able or ready to quit abruptly. It can also be used in cases in which you temporarily refrain from smoking, for example, in smoke-free areas or in other situations when you wish to avoid smoking. Combination Nicotine Replacement Therapy - patch + as needed gum versus the nicotine patch or gum alone is: o Clinically proven to increase your chances of quitting. o A clinically proven approach to increase your chances of quitting. o If you have relapse or experience tough/intense cravings or failed with gum alone, you can use NICORETTE® gum with the patch at the same time to increase your chances of quit success. o Now you can have the combined support of NICODERM® patch and NICORETTE® as needed gum products together, for a successful quit. o Tackle cravings: NICODERM® (patch) for slow release constant support and NICORETTE as needed gum for an extra quick fix/dose when you really need to fight back the cravings / when something triggers intense cravings. o Combination therapy is 38%/1.38x more effective than using one Nicotine Replacement Therapy product alone. o Use NICODERM® patch + NICORETTE® gum together to increase your chance of quitting.
