Well this is my review on the patches made by the same company. I know it isnt the gum im reviewing, however it is in the same category. I suggested Dooyoo added it to their list however they werent very interested therefore I decided to put this review up as most people wanting to give up smoking may also be interested in these so here goes.

Well I still havent stopped smoking and to be honest these patches didn't help much at all. I smoke extremely heavily and would like to stop, however I havent found any replacement therapies which have helped.
These patches come in three different strenghts. 21mg, 14mg and 7mg. These patches are the strongest brand on the market at the moment which can make them seem more appealing to heavy smokers, however I wouldnt advice them for light smokers. Obviously the more you smoke in the day the higher the dose you start with. I would then advice you to cut down on the patches every two months. Also ensure that you dont smoke while wearing one of these patches as you can be liable to nicotine poisoning which can make you extremely ill. If you do overdose on nicotine I would advice you to take the patch off immediately and consult your local GP or pharmacy.

I however found these patches terrbile. They gave me a terrbile rash and I found that they didnt stay on during excercise and in bed. They are small and discreet though which is a plus, however due to the price and my bad experiences with them I would strongly advice anyone not to use them and to firstly consult your GP before trying them as a doctor will be able to advice you more precisely.

Summary: Terrible patches and the gum follows the same line.
