Troubleshooting

Gum loses flavor quickly

Ensure you are following the correct chewing technique: chew slowly until the taste is strong, then rest it between your cheek and gum until the taste fades. Avoid vigorous chewing.

Experiencing side effects like nausea or dizziness

This may indicate too much nicotine. Try reducing the number of pieces used per day or consider switching to the 2mg strength. Consult a healthcare professional if symptoms persist.

Difficulty initiating the quitting process

Nicorette gum is most effective when used with a support program. Consider seeking advice from your pharmacist, doctor, or a trained counsellor.
