What is Nicotine used for?

Nicotine gum is a nicotine replacement therapy that addresses tobacco dependence by providing controlled nicotine delivery. - Smoking cessation: assists adult smokers in gradually reducing nicotine dependence and managing withdrawal symptoms. - Tobacco dependence: provides a regulated nicotine dose to alleviate cravings during quit attempts. - Relapse prevention: supports individuals who have recently quit by maintaining nicotine levels to deter relapse. - Nicotine withdrawal management: reduces irritability, anxiety, and concentration difficulties associated with abrupt cessation. - Adjunct to behavioral therapy: enhances the effectiveness of counseling and support programs for quitting smoking.

What are the side effects of Nicotine?

Nicotine gum may cause a range of adverse reactions, most of which are mild and transient.

Common Side Effects: - Mouth irritation or soreness - Hiccups or throat irritation - Nausea or upset stomach - Increased salivation - Jaw discomfort or muscle fatigue

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Allergic reaction (rash, swelling, itching) - Chest pain or palpitations - Severe hypertension - Anaphylaxis - Persistent mouth ulcers

What precautions apply to Nicotine?

When using nicotine gum, consider the following precautions to ensure safe and effective use. - Assess nicotine dependence level: determine appropriate chewing frequency based on smoking history. - Cardiovascular risk: avoid use immediately after recent myocardial infarction or unstable angina. - Maximum chewing limit: do not exceed the recommended number of pieces per day. - Pregnancy and lactation: use only if benefits outweigh potential risks, as safety data are limited. - Age restriction: not recommended for individuals under 18 years of age. - Store at ambient temperature: keep in original packaging, protect from moisture and heat.

What does Nicotine interact with?

Nicotine gum can interact with several medications; awareness of these interactions helps maintain safety.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs): may potentiate hypertensive response to nicotine. - Insulin or oral hypoglycemic agents: nicotine can affect glucose metabolism, requiring dose adjustments. - Beta‑blockers: nicotine‑induced tachycardia may be masked, complicating cardiovascular monitoring.

Nicorette Med Fruktsmak is a nicotine gum used as a nicotine replacement therapy to help adult smokers quit. It provides controlled nicotine to lessen cravings and withdrawal symptoms, supporting a gradual transition away from tobacco use.
