NiQuitin Original Lozenges 2mg

NiQuitin Original Lozenges 2mg with Click2Quit® Stop Smoking Plan for those who smoke 30+ minutes after waking.

NiQuitin Lozenges offer powerful relief and allow you to quickly tackle even your toughest cravings, as and when they happen. They let you control when you get your nicotine. They’re easy to keep handy, discreet to use, and come in two flavours - original and mint.

The strength of lozenge you use depends on when you have your first cigarette of the day. If you tend to light up within 30 minutes of waking up, you’ll need NiQuitin 4mg Lozenges. If you start more than 30 minutes after waking, you’ll need NiQuitin 2mg Lozenges. Then:

• For Step 1, you’ll probably need a lozenge every one to two hours, and at least 9 lozenges a day up to a maximum of 15.
• After six weeks you’ll be ready to move on to Step 2, and need one lozenge every two to four hours.
• Then after nine weeks, you should be down to one lozenge every four to eight hours.
• Following the step-down programme in this way will let you gradually wean yourself off nicotine so you can quit for good.

If you're not ready to give up smoking straightaway, you can use NiQuitin Pre-Quit Lozenges to help you cut down before stopping completely.
