  5. How do I use the nicotine gum?

Chew a single piece of the gum slowly and briefly. A peppery, spicy, or tingly sensation should begin.

Park it between your gum and cheek for about five minutes.

Repeat about five times or for 30 minutes and discard it when you’re done.

Nicotine in the gum is absorbed through the lining between your cheek and gum. The nicotine gum is a short-acting therapy. It works best for sudden cravings and withdrawal during the day.
