Nicorette Quickmist is used to relieve and/or prevent withdrawal symptoms and reduce nicotine cravings for those trying to cut down on the number of cigarettes smoked or quit smoking altogether.
It can be used in a number of ways - it can replace cigarettes altogether, or it can replace certain cigarettes you smoke in a day if you are not ready to quit altogether, helping you to reduce the number of cigarettes you smoke each day.
How to use the Quickmist Mouthspray
You will need to prime the spray first before using it for the first time, or if you have not used the spray for more than two days.
Priming
- Point the spray safely away from you, any other adults, children or pets.
- Press the top of the QuickMist with your index finger 3 times until a fine spray appears.
After priming, point the spray nozzle as close to the open mouth as possible. Press the top of the dispenser and release one spray into your mouth, avoiding the lips.
Do not inhale while spraying to avoid getting spray down your throat. For best results, do not swallow for a few seconds after spraying.
Most smokers will require 1-2 sprays every 30 minutes to 1 hour. If your cravings are not relieved within a few minutes after the first spray, then a second one should be used. You may use up to 4 sprays per hour. Do not exceed 2 sprays per dosing episode and 64 sprays (4 sprays per hour over 16 hours) in any 24-hour period.
