What NIQUITIN is and what it is used for
NiQuitin is used to help stop smoking. This type of treatment is called Nicotine Replacement Therapy or TSN.
The nicotine in cigarettes is what can make you physically addicted to them.
NiQuitin helps you quit smoking by replacing some of the nicotine that cigarettes provide.
This nicotine alleviates some of the unpleasant symptoms that smokers may have when trying to quit smoking. These symptoms include feeling bad or irritable.
Nicotine can also ease your anxiety from a cigarette and help you resist the urge to smoke.

NiQuitin does not present the same health hazards as tobacco. This is because it does not contain the tar, carbon monoxide, or other toxins that cigarette smoke contains. Some people are concerned that after they quit smoking, they may become dependent on nicotine lozenges. This is very rare, and if it happens, it is less harmful than continuing to smoke. Anyway, it is an easier habit to break.

Your chances of quitting smoking will improve if you participate in a support program. These "smoking cessation programs" are known as behavioral supports. For information on smoking cessation programs please consult a healthcare professional.

HOW TO TAKE NIQUITIN

Insert a sucking tablet into your mouth and occasionally move it from one side of your mouth to the other, until it is completely dissolved. It could take about 10 minutes. Do not chew the tablet to suck or swallow it whole.
Do not use more than 15 tablets to suck per day.

Adults (over 18 years old).
    Start using 1 tablet each time you have an urge to smoke, up to 8 to 12 sucking tablets per day.
    Continue like this for up to 6 weeks, then gradually reduce the number of tablets you use per day.
    When you use 1 or 2 tablets to suck daily, stop using them.
After you have successfully quit smoking, you may suddenly feel like going back to smoking, if this happens you can go back to using 1 tablet.
