Indications & Clinical Uses

  • Nicorette Clear is a nicotine replacement therapy that acts on the nicotine dependence pathway to support quitting smoking.
  • Smoking cessation: assists adult smokers in reducing cravings and withdrawal symptoms during a quit attempt.
  • Tobacco dependence: provides controlled nicotine delivery to replace cigarettes and facilitate gradual reduction.
  • Nicotine replacement therapy: delivers steady nicotine levels to support behavior change.

How It Works

  • Nicotine in Nicorette Clear binds to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the central nervous system, partially stimulating these receptors and mimicking the pharmacologic effects of tobacco‑derived nicotine. This activation reduces the intensity of withdrawal symptoms and cravings, allowing the user to taper nicotine exposure gradually while attempting to quit smoking.

  • Unexplained fainting or loss of consciousness

Precautions & Warnings

  • Precautions should be taken to ensure safe and effective use of Nicorette Clear.

Frequently Asked Questions

Nicorette Clear is a nicotine transdermal patch indicated for smoking cessation; it delivers nicotine through the skin to reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms in adult smokers who are trying to quit.

Nicotine binds to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the central nervous system, stimulating them and mimicking the effect of tobacco‑derived nicotine, thereby decreasing withdrawal symptoms and cravings while the user gradually reduces dependence.

The specific dose and duration of Nicorette Clear are determined by the prescribing health‑care professional based on the individual’s smoking history, level of dependence, and previous quit‑attempt experience. The prescriber selects the appropriate patch strength and treatment schedule.

Safety of nicotine patches during pregnancy or lactation has not been established. Health‑care providers should weigh potential risks and benefits, and alternative cessation methods may be preferred for pregnant or nursing individuals.

To place an order, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnhindia.com with the required quantity. GNH India works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.

Compared with nicotine gum or lozenges, the Nicorette Clear patch provides a steady, controlled release of nicotine over 24 hours, eliminating the need for frequent dosing and reducing oral irritation. It is generally preferred for users who want a convenient, once‑daily regimen.

Store at room temperature, below 25 °C, in the original sealed pouch. Keep the patches away from moisture, direct sunlight and heat sources to maintain adhesive quality and nicotine stability.

The patch is applied to clean, dry, hair‑free skin on the upper arm, chest or back. Press firmly for several seconds, ensuring full contact, and replace it with a new patch according to the prescriber’s schedule, typically every 24 hours.

Although uncommon, serious reactions may include severe skin rash, allergic response, dizziness, chest pain, rapid heartbeat or significant changes in blood pressure. Users experiencing any of these symptoms should discontinue use and seek medical attention promptly.

Individuals with known hypersensitivity to nicotine or any patch components, those using other nicotine‑containing products simultaneously, and patients with recent myocardial infarction or uncontrolled severe cardiovascular disease should avoid using the patch unless directed by a physician.
