Habitrol Gum is an over-the-counter product specifically formulated to control the symptoms of nicotine withdrawal symptoms. It is an incredibly effective, reliable, and trusted aid to quitting smoking.   

Habitrol gum contains only one-sixth to one-third of the nicotine typically found in a cigarette, which means that it replicates the effects of a cigarette. It does not have any of the other harmful chemicals or side effects related to smoking.

Habitrol gum satisfies the body's craving for nicotine in a way that is controlled and measured. When you chew Habitrol gum, minuscule amounts of nicotine are released and then absorbed through the lining of your mouth. 

This smoking cessation method has worked for countless people, and it can work for you too.  It can be used effectively as part of a broader stop-smoking program for those who cannot go completely "cold turkey." 

Habitrol gum can also be used by smokers who are not ready to quit smoking entirely and are instead looking for a temporary nicotine replacement.  In each of these cases, this gum can give you the momentum and encouragement you need to take control of your cigarette consumption.

Instructions

Use the "park-and-chew" method when using Habitrol gum.  Do not drink acidic beverages, such as coffee or soda, at least 15 minutes before chewing Habitrol gum because they may interfere with the absorption of the nicotine into the body. 

Chew one piece of gum when you feel the urge to smoke to help you alleviate your withdrawal symptoms.  For those using the 2mg dosage, chew only 8-12 pieces per day, up to a maximum of 20 pieces of gum per day.  For those using the 4mg dosage, chew only 4-6 pieces of gum per day, up to a maximum of 10 per day.  Do not chew more than one piece of nicotine gum per hour.

After three months of using Habitrol nicotine gum, the user should reduce the number of pieces of gum chewed per day to 1 to 2 pieces.  The time it takes to get to this point should be about six months.  It may require additional counseling and support to maintain this routine and achieve success. 

The use of the "Quit Now Program" and "Combination Therapy" may be the critical factor that will help you quit smoking.  Habitrol gum should be a part of your overall quit-smoking strategy.  Consistently following the recommendations of the Quit Now Program can lead to finally being able to quit smoking forever!

Combination Therapy can significantly benefit those who find themselves reverting to smoking after using a single form of nicotine replacement therapy (NRT).  If you have difficulty controlling your cravings, then you can combine Habitrol Patches Step 1 with Habitrol Chewing Gum 2mg.  Note that Habitrol Chewing Gum 4mg should not be used with Habitrol Patches.  Combination Therapy has a 12-week long program.  After the end of the 12-week Program, One of the following steps can start:

1. Stop using Habitrol Patches and start to reduce your use of Habitrol Gum gradually.
2. Continue using Habitrol Patches Step 2 for 3-4 weeks longer. After that time, switch to Habitrol Patches Step 3 for another 3-4 weeks.  Continue to use Habitrol Chewing Gum 2mg during this time.  After you stop using Habitrol Patches, gradually reduce your use of Habitrol Chewing Gum. 

Chew Habitrol nicotine gum using the "Park-n-Chew" method.  When you feel nicotine withdrawal symptoms, chew a piece of Habitrol gum.  Once you start chewing the gum, you will feel a tingling sensation in your mouth. Park the gum between your tongue and cheek for approximately one minute or until the tingling sensation has subsided, then chew the gum again.  Repeat this technique for about 30 minutes.  The alternating between chewing and parking the gum is known as the "Park-n-Chew" method.  By the end of it, the urge to smoke will have disappeared, and the tingling sensation will have also subsided.

Warnings

Individuals younger than 12 years of age should not use Habitrol gum.  Nicotine is a toxic and addictive substance, and doses of only milligrams can potentially be fatal if absorbed rapidly into the body.  Weigh the dangers of smoking with the risks of using an NRT product such as nicotine gum.  If you experience symptoms of nicotine overdose, then immediately discontinue its use.  Nicotine overdose symptoms may include mild intoxication, which produces nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, headache, sweating, or weakness.
