Nicotine Gum

Nicotine Gum Information

      All nicotine gum is, is an over the counter gum that contains nicotine(usually between 2mg and 4mg depending on your current level of addiction).  It is designed to help you to quit smoking by delivering nicotine to your body by absorbing through the tissues in your mouth.  While this may, in fact, help you to quit smoking, you may actually become addicted to the nicotine gum itself.

      Nicotine gum is chewed in the mouth until a tingling sensation is felt.  The nicotine gum is then held between the cheek and gums to allow the nicotine to be absorbed.  After a few minutes you again chew the gum again to release more nicotine and repeat the steps until the gum is exhausted of any and all nicotine.

      Warning:  Nicotine gum, as the name states, contains nicotine.  It is therefore addictive just like cigarettes.  Some users found that they experienced hiccups and dryness of the throat.
