Ready to quit smoking? Have a lozenge whenever you feel the urge to smoke. Over time, you’ll need fewer lozenges to control your nicotine cravings and withdrawal symptoms.
Stop Immediately
| Week 1-12 | 1 lozenge when you have the urge to smoke or every 1-2 hours. Do not use more than 15 lozenges per day. |
| After 12 weeks | Gradually reduce to 1-2 lozenges per day and then stop use. |
Cutting Down
Gradually increase lozenge use (maximum of 15 lozenges per day) and reduce smoking with the aim of stopping by 6 months. If you have not cut down at 6 weeks or stopped at 9 months, see your doctor or pharmacist.
Combination Therapy
If you have relapsed with single nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) or if you have cravings with the single-use NRT, you can use NICORETTE lozenge in addition to NICORETTE patch for better craving relief. Use patch as directed and aim to use at least 4 NICORETTE 2mg lozenges (maximum of 12) every day. After 12 weeks reduce the use of patch or lozenge (see pack insert).
