Nicorrette Gum

After smoking 20 a day for 11 years i decided to attempt to give up smoking but new i could not do it on will power alone. My dad had tried the patches and these made him ill so i thought i would give the chewing gum a try, killing two birds with one stone or so i thought. Something to do with my mouth and a source of nicotine. Wholst out shopping i brought a packet of the 4mg strength gum with 12 pieces in for £4.89 The next morning when i got up i put a piece in my mouth, chewed for a couple of seconds and thought what a horrid flavour, the taste is foul but i persisted. You dont have to chew the gum continually, chew it for ...  Read the complete review

Nicorette Gum has been the Finisher of my Fag Habit. It's worked wonders - it takes the edge off my cravings enough for me to forget about them. Bliss! I chew one when I crave a cig, and also at times when I used to have a cig - after dinner, for example. Advantages: take the edge off the craving; you get 30 in a packet; more socially acceptable than smoking; don't make you smell; don't give you cancer; you can use up to 15 a day; they keep their taste and nicotine "shot" for hours (I was never a big smoker (10 - 15 a day) and found I was using about 5 pieces of gum a day to start with. I chewed the same piece for an hour or 2); they are ...  Read the complete review

I quit smoking 7 weeks ago after smoking 15 cigs a day for over 30 years. I had tried nicotine patches previously, but they upset my stomach, so I thought I would try the gum this time. Chewed one piece every couple of hours for the first couple of days, then found it was each 3 hours before I got a craving attack. I had unusual night-time insomnia and day-time sleepiness problems at first and found that if I chewed right before getting in bed, that helped me nod off. Now I'm using about 4 - 5 pieces a day and so far I'm smoke free. Jaw aches a bit sometimes and reminds me to remove it, otherwise no problems. I'm astounded that despite losing my job and mourning ...  Read the complete review

Before we get to weather it works or not, it’s important to know why I wrote this! I wrote opinion on this stuff, coz I've tried the gum and I now know the truth about the gum. Also I am a 20 a day smoker and I want to quit. So… I brought (well my lovely girlf brought me) 30 pieces of 4mg Mint gum, £7.49 it cost. We went for the 4mg gum as it is the strongest available, there is also 2mg available. We chose the 30-piece packet, as 15 seemed to few, and 105 far to many. Mint was her choice. Inside your packet of gum you will find a very helpful pamphlet on which packet suits you best. (Not very helpful ...  Read the complete review

Everything was wonderful when I first met my husband except - I smoked like a chimney! He was very much into healthy living and sport, I was into drinking and smoking (well they do say opposites attract!). I carried on smoking for a while when we met but I knew he hated it. I used to feel awful kissing him as I knew that I tasted like an ashtray. I was also very aware of the stench of smoke that came from my clothes and hair. Suddenly he was forced to inhale my smoke and started to smell too - this was not fair on him. When we moved in together and he banned me from smoking in the house I knew I had to do something. At first I spent hours sitting on the patio like ...  Read the complete review
