Nicorelief – A Nicotine Gum To Quit Smoking
September 3rd, 2008
Nicorelief is a nicotine gum that helps people to stop smoking. Nicotine gum works just like nicotine patch except that you chew on nicotine gum and you stick the nicotine patch to your skin to use it.
Your health care provider will have to know if you have any of these symptoms before you can have Nicorelief as your stop smoking method:
•angina
•dental disease
•diabetes
•high blood pressure
•irregular heartbeat
•overactive thyroid
•pheochromocytoma

•sodium-restricted diet
•stomach problems or ulcers
•an unusual or allergic reaction to nicotine, other medicines, foods, dyes, or preservatives
•pregnant or trying to get pregnant
•breast-feeding
When you are using Nicorelief, watch out for any side effects that might be dangerous if not treated as soon as possible while others might be mild side effects that will wear off soon.
You should let your physician know if you have experienced any of the side effects below:
•confusion

•fast or irregular heartbeat (palpitations), chest pain
•headache
•hearing changes
•increased saliva
•nausea, vomiting

The best idea to make sure that you don’t smoke is to always carry the nicotine gum with you. Remember not to smoke when you are having the nicotine gum. When you feel tired of chewing on the gum, you may suck hard on the gum to get the nicotine you need.
How to use the nicotine gum?
You have to chew on the nicotine gum in the mouth but not swallow the gum. You are advised to follow the instructions that come together with the package. You should only use the gum when you have the strong urge to smoke.
Do not use more than 30 pieces of gum a day. Too much gum can increase the risk of an overdose. As the urge to smoke gets less, gradually reduce the number of pieces each day over a period of 2 to 3 months. When you are only using 1 or 2 pieces a day, stop using the nicotine gum.
If you have any problems, consult your physician immediately.
