Frequently asked questions

What is Nicotinell TTS 20 used for?+
Nicotinell TTS 20 is a nicotine replacement therapy patch designed to help adult smokers quit by reducing cravings and easing withdrawal symptoms during a smoking‑cessation program.
How does nicotine work in this patch?+
The nicotine in the patch acts as a partial agonist at nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the brain, providing a steady, low‑level stimulation that lessens the intensity of withdrawal and diminishes the urge to smoke.
What is the usual dose of Nicotinell TTS 20?+
The prescriber determines the appropriate dosing regimen. A 20 mg patch is typically applied once daily, but the exact schedule should follow the healthcare professional’s recommendation.
Is Nicotinell TTS 20 safe in pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
