Use Nicotex 4 mg thrice a day Has to chew the gum. Then the taste comes to saliva. Keep the Nicotex somewhere in the mouth beside teeth. Then slowly chew after the taste subside. Then repeat again So chew the gum slowly.

Dear lybrate-user, For someone smoking 4 - 5 cigarettes, if you motivate him to quit smoking continuously for 12 weeks, he will be able to quit fully. You can also give him appreciation for not smoking and continue your friendship. If he faces withdrawal like headache, irritability, less concentration, memory lapses and increased hunger, then only he needs nicotex. He can take nicotex 2 mg whenever he has craving or withdrawal symptoms, Though he can take 12 gums in the first week, he may not need so much. Let him decide on his own. Let him not keep cigarettes in his pockets. Instead keep gums and use as much as he wants. Next week he has to reduce 1 gum/day. It will be easier to reduce gum and stop it all together.
