Nicorette Nicotine Chewing Gum - Classique 2 mg Ice White, Pack of 105 GUMS

Description:

Nicorette Nicotine Chewing Gum Classique 2 mg Ice White is a medicated nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) designed to help adults stop smoking or reduce the number of cigarettes they smoke. Each medicated chewing gum piece delivers a controlled 2 mg dose of nicotine to relieve withdrawal symptoms and cigarette cravings, making it easier to manage the smoking cessation process. The Ice White flavor provides a refreshing, mint-like taste and breath-freshening effect while supporting your quit-smoking plan. This product is classified as a medicine and should be used as part of a structured smoking cessation program, ideally with behavioral support.

Indications:

• Smoking cessation aid for adults who wish to stop smoking completely.
• Helps reduce nicotine withdrawal symptoms such as irritability, anxiety, restlessness, difficulty concentrating, and increased appetite when quitting smoking.
• Reduces the intensity and frequency of cigarette cravings.
• May be used as a temporary aid to reduce smoking in smokers who are not yet ready to quit completely, as a step toward eventual cessation.
• Suitable for smokers who typically smoke fewer than 20 cigarettes per day (light to moderate smokers), or those advised by a healthcare professional to use the 2 mg strength.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Nicotine – 2 mg per medicated chewing gum (as nicotine resin complex). This is the active ingredient responsible for reducing withdrawal symptoms and cravings.
• Other ingredients (excipients) typically include chewing gum base, sweeteners, flavorings (Ice White/mint flavor), and stabilizers. Exact full excipient list and concentrations , please check the product leaflet or the manufacturer’s official website; please refer to the product pack leaflet for the complete composition.

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Use only as directed for smoking cessation. This product is intended for adults aged 18 years and older.
• Recommended strength: 2 mg gum is generally suitable for light to moderate smokers (usually < 20 cigarettes per day) or for those who prefer a lower nicotine dose. Heavier smokers may require higher strength under medical advice.
• Chew and park technique:
  • Chew one piece of gum slowly until you notice a strong taste or tingling sensation.
  • “Park” the gum between your cheek and gum and keep it there until the taste or tingling fades.
  • Start chewing again slowly, then park it again when the taste returns.
  • Repeat this chew–park cycle for about 30 minutes per piece, then discard the gum safely.
• Typical dosing schedule (for complete cessation):
  • Use 1 piece when you feel the urge to smoke.
  • Usually 8–12 pieces per day, up to a maximum of 24 pieces per day of 2 mg gum. Do not exceed the maximum daily dose stated on the package leaflet.
  • Use regularly for the first 6–12 weeks, then gradually reduce the number of pieces per day over the following weeks until you can stop completely.
• With or without food: Do not eat or drink while chewing the gum. Avoid acidic drinks (such as coffee, soft drinks, fruit juices) 15 minutes before and during use, as they can reduce nicotine absorption.
• Duration of therapy: Usually up to 3 months, with gradual tapering. Do not use for longer than 9–12 months without medical advice.
• If you still feel strong cravings or find it difficult to stop using the gum, consult your doctor or pharmacist for further guidance.

Clinical Benefits:

• Helps relieve nicotine withdrawal symptoms, making it easier to stop smoking and stay smoke-free.
• Reduces the urge to smoke by providing a controlled, lower dose of nicotine without harmful cigarette smoke toxins such as tar and carbon monoxide.
• Supports gradual reduction of nicotine dependence through flexible dosing and step-down use.
• Provides an oral substitute for smoking, helping to manage the behavioral and hand-to-mouth habit associated with cigarettes.
• Ice White flavor helps freshen breath, offering a more pleasant quitting experience.
