Frequently asked questions

What is Nicotinell Fruit Sans Sucre used for?+
Nicotinell Fruit Sans Sucre is an over‑the‑counter nicotine replacement product designed to help adult smokers quit. It delivers nicotine through the buccal mucosa, reducing withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with smoking cessation.
How does nicotine polacrilex work?+
Nicotine polacrilex is a resin‑bound nicotine complex that slowly releases nicotine when placed in the mouth. The nicotine is absorbed through the buccal lining and activates nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the brain, partially mimicking the effect of cigarette‑derived nicotine and thereby easing withdrawal.
What is the usual dose of Nicotinell Fruit Sans Sucre?+
The appropriate dose is determined by a qualified healthcare professional based on the individual’s smoking habits and health status. The prescriber will select the strength and frequency that best supports a gradual reduction in nicotine dependence.
Is Nicotinell Fruit Sans Sucre safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Safety data for nicotine polacrilex in pregnancy and lactation are limited. Women who are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding should discuss potential risks and benefits with their healthcare provider before using this product.
How do I order Nicotinell Fruit Sans Sucre from GNH USA?+
To place an order, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnh-usa.com specifying the required quantity. GNH USA supplies 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 Nicotinell compare with other nicotine replacement products?+
Nicotinell delivers nicotine via a buccal lozenge, offering a slower, more controlled release compared with nicotine gum or lozenges that may have a faster onset. This can result in smoother symptom control for some users, while still providing the flexibility of an over‑the‑counter option.
How should Nicotinell Fruit Sans Sucre be stored and handled?+
Store the product at ambient temperature below 25 °C, in its original packaging, and protect it from moisture. Keep it away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children and pets to maintain product integrity.
How is Nicotinell Fruit Sans Sucre administered?+
Place the lozenge in the mouth and allow it to dissolve slowly, keeping it between the cheek and gum. Do not chew or swallow whole; avoid eating or drinking for at least 15 minutes after placement to ensure optimal nicotine absorption.
What are the most serious risks to watch for while using Nicotinell Fruit Sans Sucre?+
Serious adverse reactions, although rare, include throat ulceration, severe allergic responses such as rash or swelling, respiratory distress, extensive mouth sores, and anaphylaxis. Any signs of a severe reaction require immediate medical attention.
Who should not use Nicotinell Fruit Sans Sucre?+
The product is not intended for non‑smokers, children, or individuals with known hypersensitivity to nicotine or any component of the lozenge. Persons with recent myocardial infarction, uncontrolled hypertension, or severe cardiovascular disease should consult a physician before use.
