Step 1: Start with a gum that matches your current nicotine use. Typically, use the 4mg gum if you're a heavy smoker (more than 25 cigarettes/day) and the 2mg gum if you smoke less.
Step 2: Chew the gum slowly until you feel a tingling sensation, then park the gum between your cheek and gums. Continue chewing every few minutes as needed.
Step 3: Gradually reduce your use of nicotine gum as your cravings decrease, eventually weaning off the gum as you become smoke-free.
Step 4: Follow the dosage recommendations provided on the package, or as instructed by your healthcare professional.
Always follow your doctor’s instructions to ensure safe and effective use. If you have any concerns, consult your healthcare provider.
