Description

How to Use
- For external use only
- Not recommended for use in children.
Dosage
The usage of the patches will depend on the number of cigarettes smoked per day. NiQuitin therapy should usually begin with NiQuitin 21 mg/24 hrs and be reduced according to the step down chart over a period of 10 weeks.
One patch will be applied to an intact area of skin each morning and removed on the next morning before the new patch is to be applied (or at bedtime on the day of application if desired). The patch will release the dose of nicotine slowly throughout the day to subdue cravings. The area to which the patch is attached should be alternated on a daily basis to avoid irritation.
To apply the patch, the area of skin should be cleaned and dried. The sachet containing the patch should be opened, and the sticky surface of the patch can then be applied to the area where the patch is to be attached and pressed firmly against the skin to ensure the patch is firmly attached.
Take care when removing and disposing of the patch as some of the surface may still be medicated. Dispose of carefully.
Warning
- Please read the enclosed package leaflet carefully before use
