Nicorette Patches 15mg 7 pcs

Medication name: Nicorette Patches 15 mg (7 pcs) contain Nicotine, a nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) used to help people quit smoking by reducing cravings and withdrawal symptoms.

Drug class: Smoking cessation aid / Nicotine replacement therapy

Use: Nicorette Patches are designed to help smokers gradually reduce their dependence on nicotine and successfully stop smoking.

They provide a steady, controlled release of nicotine through the skin over 16–24 hours, reducing irritability, anxiety, and cravings associated with quitting.

How it works: The patch delivers nicotine transdermally (through the skin) into the bloodstream at a consistent rate.

This replaces the nicotine that would normally be obtained from cigarettes, helping the user manage withdrawal symptoms while breaking the psychological habit of smoking.

Dosage and administration:

• Apply one patch daily to clean, dry, hairless skin on the upper body or upper arm.

• Replace with a new patch every 24 hours, rotating application sites to avoid skin irritation.

• Use as part of a step-down program:

  • Step 1: 25 mg patch (for 6 weeks)

  • Step 2: 15 mg patch (for 2 weeks)

  • Step 3: 10 mg patch (for 2 weeks)

• Do not cut the patch. Remove before bed if it causes sleep disturbance.

Side effects: Common side effects include skin irritation, redness, itching, dizziness, headache, nausea, and trouble sleeping.

Rarely, palpitations or allergic skin reactions may occur.

Precautions:

• For external use only.

• Do not use if non-smoker or occasional smoker.

• Avoid in cases of recent heart attack, severe arrhythmia, or uncontrolled hypertension.

• Consult your doctor if pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking other nicotine-containing products.

• Stop use and seek medical advice if you experience severe skin reactions or irregular heartbeat.

Storage: Store below 25 °C, in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight and out of reach of children.
