The nicotine in the gum is absorbed through the oral mucosa and reaches the brain, where it partially stimulates nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. This mimics the effect of cigarette nicotine, easing withdrawal and decreasing the urge to smoke.
What is the usual dose of Nicorette Freshmint?+
The specific dose and regimen are determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the individual’s smoking habits and dependence level. Patients should follow the prescriber’s instructions and the product’s dosing guidelines.
Is Nicorette Freshmint safe to use during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
