The specific dose and duration are determined by a prescriber or qualified healthcare professional based on the individual’s smoking history, dependence level, and health status. Users should follow the guidance provided on the product label or by their clinician.
Is Niquitin Mini Mint safe to use during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Safety data for nicotine replacement therapy in pregnancy and lactation are limited. Healthcare providers usually weigh the potential risks of nicotine exposure against the benefits of quitting smoking. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should discuss use with their obstetrician or physician.
