How it works
If you smoke 25 cigarettes or fewer a day, try the 2 mg gum.
If you smoke more than 25 cigarettes a day, try the 4 mg gum.
How to Use
Chew the gum slowly until the taste becomes strong.
When the taste is strong, rest the gum between your jaw and cheek. The nicotine is absorbed by your mouth’s lining.
After the taste has faded, resume chewing the gum until the taste becomes strong again.
Keep repeating steps 2 and 3 for about 30 minutes.
