Nicorette Nasal Spray - 6 Pack

Nicorette Nasal Spray 6 Pack includes six 10 ml nasal spray bottles of Nicorette Nasal Spray, a nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) formulated to rapidly relieve nicotine cravings and physical withdrawal symptoms associated with quitting smoking tobacco or vaping. Nicotine in the spray is absorbed quickly through the nasal lining into the bloodstream, providing fast-acting relief without exposure to the harmful tar, carbon monoxide and other toxic substances in cigarette smoke.

Each spray delivers a metred dose of nicotine (typically 0.5 mg per 50 µl spray) to help manage urges to smoke. Nicorette Nasal Spray is especially useful for smokers who experience strong or sudden cravings, as nicotine is rapidly absorbed compared with some other NRT formats. Clinical guidance suggests using NRT alongside behavioural support to maximise quit success.

Brand: Nicorette — established nicotine replacement therapy range from the Johnson & Johnson/Kenvue portfolio.

Pack Size: 6 bottles × 10 ml nasal spray

Type: Nicotine nasal spray for smoking cessation and craving relief

Target: Adult smokers (18 + years) seeking to quit or reduce smoking/vaping

1. Before First Use: Remove the protective cap and prime the spray by pressing firmly until a fine mist appears.
2. Administration: Insert the spray nozzle into one nostril while closing the other nostril with a finger; press once to deliver the dose. Repeat in the other nostril if required.
3. Dose Frequency: Adults may use one spray per nostril up to twice per hour (two sprays per hour maximum). Do not exceed 64 sprays in any 24-hour period (approx. 32 sprays per nostril/day).
4. Timing: Use the spray when cravings occur; spacing doses may help manage intense urges throughout the day.
5. Reduction Plan: After several weeks with controlled cravings, gradually reduce usage before stopping completely, in line with product leaflet guidance or clinician advice.
6. Duration of Use: Typically, NRT use may be continued for up to 3 months as part of a structured quit plan, with reduction in sprays over the last weeks.

Important: Always read the enclosed Patient Information Leaflet (PIL) before use and follow specific dosing recommendations. Seek pharmacist or clinician advice if you are unsure about your quit strategy.
