What is Nicorette Inhalator
A Nicorette Inhaler is an ideal solution for someone who has quit smoking, looking to quit or is currently in the middle of quitting. The Nicorette inhaler does, however, contain nicotine.
To get rid of the habit and for the Nicorette inhaler to help, it is recommended that the person should have the correct mindset and that if you cannot quit altogether, Nicorette inhaler can help reduce the number of cigarettes that he smokes gradually. This can make it easier to stop smoking completely eventually.
How Effective Is the Nicorette inhaler?
The Nicorette inhaler is a very effective way of controlling the urge to smoke a cigarette. It is a type of medicine known as nicotine replacement therapy (NRT). Each inhaler contains nicotine which is situated in the porous plug alongside Menthol and Ethanol.
Can I buy the Nicorette inhaler online?
The Nicorette inhaler does not require a prescription, so you can buy over the counter or online with ease and also available for Next Day Delivery from Click Pharmacy.
What dose should I choose?
The Nicorette inhaler comes in packages of 4 cartridges, 20 cartridges, 36 cartridges or even 60 cartridges. Each cartridge contains 15g of nicotine. It all depends on how much you want personally, on how many cigarettes one smokes and how hard you are finding the process of quitting. It is only suitable for adults aged 18 years or over.
How should I take Nicorette Inhaler
Once the cartridge is inserted in the inhaler, you inhale through the mouthpiece like smoking a cigarette. With each puff on the inhaler, you will get less and less nicotine which is much less than what you would from a puff on a cigarette. So you may need to inhale from the inhaler more often than you would with a cigarette to get the same amount of nicotine. It's up to you how many inhalations you take, how often you take them and for how long.
Each cartridge lasts for about 40 minutes of intense use before it will need replacing, as each one contains 15mg. It's up to you how you use each cartridge.
The number of cartridges you use each day will depend on how much you smoke, what strength your cigarettes are, and if you are cutting down or altogether quitting smoking. You should only limit yourself to six to twelve 15mg cartridges per day.
When the moment comes and you feel ready, you should gradually reduce the number of times you use the inhalator until you have stopped completely.
If you can't reduce the use of the inhaler after three months or, even worse, end up smoking again, you should ask for help and advice from your doctor or pharmacist.
How does Nicorette inhaler work?
The Nicorette inhaler does contain nicotine, which is the addictive substance found in cigarettes, so one must be careful when taking Nicorette inhalers.
The way Nicorette inhalers work is via nicotine replacement therapy, this means the inhaler gives you a small amount of nicotine. This helps with the craving for a cigarette one feels, but the main objective is that it does just this without the dangerous effects of inhaling tobacco. So you feel satisfied not inhaling tobacco, and without the withdrawal symptoms, over time, you ´ will smoke fewer and fewer cigarettes. This allows you to break the psychological habit of smoking. It has been shown that using NRT doubles your chances of successfully quitting smoking.
How long do I take Nicorette inhalers
This entirely depends on how dependent the individual is on cigarettes and how your body adapts to Nicorette inhalers. An individual should use at least 4-5 cartridges a day, but this may differ from person to person, but one thing is for sure. Everyone is different, and it is okay that these processes take time.
