Nicotex Nicotine Transdermal Patch | Helps to Quit Smoking | WHO - Approved Therapy | 7 Patches (Step 1-21mg)

My best friend having the weird habit of snuff chewing from his grand father. It makes him suffering with GERD. He uses max 6 pouches of snuff per day. I lost my patience towards him by advising him which was in vain coz he tried quitting but failed 3 times. I'm here to thank Cipla company. It is one of the best method to quit tobacco addiction. He uses only 2 pouches per day which is a miracle to him. It is only one week, From the 2nd week he decided to use 1 pouch per day. From 3rd week, decided to order 7-14mg for 2 weeks. Coz it does really works. Clean the area before apply coz sometimes it didn't stick well. Apply it in less hair area. At day 1st he said its itching and having weird dreams. No feeling of nausea or headaches no migraines till now. I googled how much nicotine does 1 snuff pouch have, its 12 mg then 12*6 = 72 mg/ (which is equal to 80 cigarettes) he intakes everyday that's y he still using 2 pouches. But I don't know about cigarettes, I never smoked. Day by day he is gaining control over his cravings which doesn't make him lose his temper as before. Yes, it is costly. But health comes as first priority. Don't apply it on the same place daily. When started itching it means begins to work. Itching will diminish slowly. No allergic reaction. To Long time tobacco addicters, this is the best option for quitting. No side effects till now. Unlike gum which giving jaw pain, it is painless. It is small in size but its working as miracle for those who want to quit. At first I too thought how it's possible but after watched him keenly, this product deserves heavy advertisement to make aware for needy peoples and should be available in all medical pharmacies. All the best for those who decided to quit. Best decision ever in your life 😊 Edit: Update Jan 23/23: Review about 14mg (This below ans is in my Friend's POV who really using this) 1st week of using 14 mg nearly took 2 days to adapt with the body for decreasing dose from 21mg to 14 mg. It is the best option for quit the smoking /chew tobacco habit in this 14mg session coz when u go to 7mg there u feel what really craving is. I really doubt sometimes "is there really nicotine present in the 7mg patches?" I don't want to demotivate anyone at the same time I really had to tell what I felt that might be very useful for someone like me. But I have to stick it coz I have ordered 2 packs of 7mg and can't quit the habit within 21 mg or 14 mg. One important thing is this 7mg really remembers the craving and urge u to go back to smoking that what Iam really afraid of. If u really had to quit don't ever smoke 1 cigarette /tobacco product while stick 7 mg its up to your will power. I must overcome the craving and continue the step3. Will update...

Quite strong, stops the urges but definitely requires will power and commitment for cessation. Initial use caused a lethargic pain in whichever site i used (left arm in my case) but settles with repeated usage. For initial hour or two, the patch site itches quite uncomfortably which u have to bear until it subsides (scratching on top of patch gently helps). Don't be empty stomach for initial few times else you'll feel very sick. Important thing is choosing the site....found higher up the arm, near shoulder it maintains the adhesive as sweat production is minimal even in summers (delhi). The lower u go (on arm....like just above elbow), the more sweat my skin produced upon application causing the patch to fall off. Avoid using same site continuously. Utilising both shoulders alternatively.

It's been 3 weeks since I started using the 14mg patch. The urge to smoke is almost gone. Except for 1 smoke everyday 2 or 3 days when I get worked up at work. No craving, no withdrawal symptoms, no change in appetite. However I did face sleeping issues so taking the patch off before I go to bed. Effectively I use the patch for about 13 hours everyday. Have had some stomach issues since I started using the patch. Low BP on one day. But so far it's doing it's job. Moving to the 7mg patch next week after completing 4 weeks with the 14mg patch. Patch is easy to use but if I get too sweaty then sometimes it tends to come off. So then I use a band aid to keep it in place.

It comes off within an hour of applying it. First I thought maybe I'm applying it wrong, but even after followed the suggestion thoroughly and applying it on my arm area as shown in the guide, saw the same result. Worst of all, there's no replacement or return policy for the product. Avoid buying this and go for better brand/product

Expensive, but works. Able to stop a 4 year long smoking addiction after 3 weeks of using the patch. It's not magical, it just makes it much easier to quit smoking.

The product is good and works for me. It had helped me on day one. I ordered 7mg pack. It took two hours to kick in. The trick was to shift to a 0.4mg cigarette two weeks before starting the patches. Only problem is that Amazon takes more than three days to deliver this product.

Update: I found that the nicotine patch is too thin and tends to wrinkle, especially when placed on the back. It also causes redness that takes several days to go away. I think this is a problem with a specific batch of patches. After 10-15 days, I started using the full patch without cutting it in half. I no longer have any symptoms, except for occasional mild irritation. ------ Initial Review ------- I smoked for 23 years, reaching over 15 cigarettes a day. For the last five years, every cigarette's final puff was accompanied by a fleeting thought of quitting. It's important to realize that smoking grips you more psychologically than physically. I once tried the gum as a quitting aid, but its taste and the discomfort it brought made it a short-lived attempt. The patch, however, has been a game-changer, especially when combined with a solid determination to quit. I've come across reviews mentioning issues with the patch's adhesive, but I believe that might relate to older versions. The patch I've been using adheres securely and stays put. In the initial two days, I battled symptoms like nausea, a looming sensation of vomiting, dizziness, irritability, and numbness. Despite these challenges, my cravings remained in check. By day three, I halved the patch and positioned it on my back. This diluted intensity helped to some extent, although it made controlling cravings slightly tougher. The patch can induce a sense of fatigue, nudging you to rest earlier than usual. I still find myself reaching for 2-3 cigarettes daily, but I'm optimistic about reducing this number progressively, ultimately leading to complete cessation. My strategy is to keep daily smoking at a bare minimum during intense cravings, maintaining this routine for a month. Concurrently, I aim to break the behavioral patterns associated with smoking, striving to embrace a smoke-free identity. It's imperative to approach the patch with realistic expectations. It isn't a magical solution; it shoulders 90% of the effort, leaving the crucial 10% to your willpower and determination. Wishing everyone embarking on this journey the best of luck!

This is my third strip from the step 1 kit. I will write in detail about my experience so that someone else could be benefited. Applying is simple and smooth, once u apply forget abt the cravings the urge doesn't last. I am a chain smoker atleast 20 in a day but until the patch is their i don't feel the urge of smoking even if i smoked i didn't felt the same pleasure. So overall a very good product. Now the things you have to be prepared of after applying patch: 1. I applied on hand, it feels like u have took a vaccination dose. Hands are stiff and painful. While sleeping it pains a lot so don't apply on the same place again try turning the position. 2. When i applied first two days it gives that burning sensation not too much but bearable. 3. After applying patch, i felt guidiness, nauseau, vomitting sensation first two days on my third day too i m feeling the same so better u take WFH or plan it before applying as i couldn't concentrate on work in office and ended up coming home and applying a stretch work from home. But trust me it's very effective. 4. I couldn't keep it and sleep at night, hands were paining when u lie down a mild nauseau which makes you feel uncomfortable, so i take out every night before an hour so that i get peaceful sleep. First day, i didn't had single smoke Second day i ditched myself and after removing i had some 5 smoke Third day i didn't applied sp it was back to the craving again Fourth day i applied again and i m better with craving. Hope this effort will not be getting wasted, must try product better then the chewing gum and tablets.
