IT IS IMPORTANT TO CONSULT A DOCTOR IN THE ABSENCE OF IMPROVEMENT. IN CASE OF DOUBT, IT IS ESSENTIAL TO ASK FOR THE OPINION OF YOUR DOCTOR OR PHARMACIST.
YOUR PHARMACIST'S ADVICE
- The degree of nicotine dependence will be assessed by the number of cigarettes consumed per day or by the Fagerström test.
- This medication can be used as monotherapy or in combination with NIQUITIN 2 mg chewing gum or NIQUITIN 2 mg sucking tablets.
In case of association, it is advisable to seek medical advice.
Anticipating temptations
During the first weeks of stopping, the lack of nicotine can manifest itself by frequent and brutal peaks during which the desire to resume smoking becomes very intense. These sudden cravings do not always appear unexpectedly. They correspond to circumstances in which you used to smoke or are triggered by stimuli such as smells or the sight of a cigarette. These are conditioned reflexes.
These peaks last on average 3 to 4 minutes and it is important to prepare for them, to better overcome them and avoid relapse. When the irresistible urge to smoke is felt, do something to fill the moment, for example:
- Drink a full glass of water.
- Eat a fruit.
- Breathe deeply.
- Change activity, room, do something else to keep your mind occupied.
- Call a friend.
