How does nicotine polacrilex work?+
Nicotine polacrilex is a resin‑bound nicotine complex that releases nicotine slowly when the gum is chewed. The nicotine is absorbed through the oral mucosa and stimulates nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the brain, partially satisfying the nicotine craving and easing withdrawal.
What is the usual dose of Nicotinell Tropical Fruit?+
