Frequently asked questions

What is Nicorette Spray used for?+
Nicorette Spray is an over‑the‑counter nicotine replacement product designed to help adult smokers quit by delivering a measured dose of nicotine through the oral mucosa, thereby reducing cravings and withdrawal symptoms associated with tobacco cessation.
How does nicotine work in Nicorette Spray?+
The nicotine in the spray binds to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the brain and peripheral nervous system, mimicking the effect of nicotine from cigarettes. This activation lessens the neurochemical deficit that occurs during withdrawal, which in turn diminishes cravings and the urge to smoke.
What is the usual dose of Nicorette Spray?+
The specific dosing regimen for Nicorette Spray is determined by a qualified healthcare professional based on the individual’s smoking history, level of dependence, and treatment goals. Patients should follow the prescriber’s instructions and not exceed the recommended number of sprays per day.
Is Nicorette Spray safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Safety data for nicotine oral spray in pregnancy and lactation are limited. Women who are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding should discuss potential risks and benefits with their physician before using Nicorette Spray.
How do I order Nicorette Spray from GNH USA?+
To request Nicorette Spray, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnh-usa.com, specifying the required quantity. GNH USA works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.
How does Nicorette Spray compare with other nicotine replacement options?+
Compared with nicotine patches or gum, the spray offers a faster onset of action because nicotine is absorbed directly through the oral mucosa. This can provide quicker relief of cravings, while patches deliver a slower, steady dose and gum requires chewing, which some users find less convenient.
How should Nicorette Spray be stored and handled?+
Store Nicorette Spray at ambient temperature, preferably below 25 °C, in its original packaging. Keep the container tightly closed, protect it from moisture and direct sunlight, and keep it out of reach of children.
How is Nicorette Spray administered?+
The spray is used by directing the nozzle toward the inside of the mouth, typically between the cheek and gum, and pressing the actuator to release a measured spray. Users should avoid swallowing immediately and allow the nicotine to absorb through the oral mucosa as instructed by their healthcare provider.
What are the most serious risks associated with Nicorette Spray?+
Serious adverse reactions, although rare, include allergic responses such as rash, swelling, or difficulty breathing, significant increases in blood pressure, and anaphylaxis. Any signs of a severe reaction require immediate medical attention.
Who should not use Nicorette Spray?+
Individuals with known hypersensitivity to nicotine or any component of the spray, those who are not current smokers, and persons with uncontrolled cardiovascular disease should avoid using Nicorette Spray unless advised otherwise by a qualified healthcare professional.
