Nicorette Gum

Definition: Nicorette gum is a nicotine chewing gum product that is used as a quit smoking aid. Nicorette gum comes in 2mg and 4mg strengths, which pertains to the amount of nicotine in each piece of gum.

Nicorette gum comes in 6 flavors:

• White Ice™

• Cinnamon Surge™

• Fruit Chill™

• FreshMint™

• Mint

• Original

When chewed, Nicorette gum releases a controlled dose of nicotine that is absorbed into the bloodstream through the lining of the mouth. Used as directed, Nicorette gum can help a person quit by gradually withdrawing from nicotine use reducing the strength and number of pieces of gum chewed.

That said, addiction to nicotine gum is a threat because it easy to use more of this type of quit aid than recommended. If you decide to use Nicorette gum to help you quit smoking, consider choosing a flavor that does not appeal to you, as a common theme with those who become addicted to nicotine gum is a preference for a particular flavor.
