if you find that nicorette is effective as a cessation aid, the fresh mint gum is a great product. better flavor and smoother texture. this is the same product sold in stores available for a much cheaper price through amazon. look no further.

sidenote: some people find the patch works better for them. it varies. amazon also sells the patch for cheaper.

Nobody should have to pay the exhorbitant prices to chew these little addictive gums. Far worse than cigarettes on the pocketbook. Be prepared.

1/2 star on the cost, 5 stars on the alternative to lung cancer.

I’ve tried various types of nicotine gum for quitting, and the coated Nicorette Fresh Mint variety seems less effective than the non-coated types. I think this is because the strong mint taste masks the “tingling” of nicotine, so you have fewer cues as to when to chew and when to “park” the gum. I recommend a different non-coated gum type, even though this kind tastes better. You want to be able to easily tell when nicotine is being released, so you can judge when to chew and when to put the gum in your cheek. It’s difficult to do that with Nicorette coated Fresh Mint, and so it isn’t as effective as the others even though it does taste better. If you already bought a box, suck the coating off each piece before you start to chew it.

I use a cheaper substitute from eBay myself, and nicotine gum can definitely work if you use it as directed (or for an even shorter period of time). It’s worth noting that there are cheaper brands than Nicorette available if you check eBay, and they’re just as effective. I recommend the gum over the lozenges if you’re going to use one or the other, as lozenges deliver *too much* nicotine in my opinion and you end up with a lozenge habit instead of a smoking habit! Use either the gum or the patch, avoid the lozenges.

Instead of paying $40.00 for this product, go to the store and buy a bunch of bananas for $2.00; eat three a day, you’ll then be able to quit smoking / dipping in about a week. Also, bananas are a great stress reliever and are packed full of vitamins.

The simple truth is that no magic cure has ever ” made ” any smoker quit smoking nicotine. The key to immediate and lasting abstinence is education and understanding not hypnosis , not acupuncture and not some over-the-counter nicotine product that teaches absolutely nothing while robbing 93%of those who toy with clean-nicotine of a valuable opportunity to master the core principles underlying years of nicotine dependency. Remember, should all else fail, you always have you!
