Nicorette Inhaler (Nicotine)

The inhaler releases nicotine that is absorbed through the mouth’s mucous membranes into the bloodstream. Nicotine then binds to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the brain, partially reproducing the stimulant effect of cigarette smoke, which eases withdrawal and diminishes the urge to smoke.

The specific dosing regimen is determined by the prescribing health‑care professional based on the individual’s smoking history and dependence level. The prescriber will advise how many inhalations to take per day and the total duration of therapy.

Safety of nicotine inhalers in pregnancy and lactation has not been established. Health‑care providers generally advise against use in pregnant or breastfeeding women because nicotine can cross the placenta and enter breast milk, potentially affecting the fetus or infant.

Compared with patches or gum, the inhaler mimics the hand‑to‑mouth action of smoking, which can be helpful for those who miss the behavioral aspect. It delivers nicotine more rapidly than patches but more slowly than cigarettes, offering a middle ground in terms of speed of nicotine absorption.

Store the inhaler at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep it in the original packaging until use, and ensure the mouthpiece is clean before each inhalation. Do not expose the device to temperatures above 30 °C for prolonged periods.

To use, place the mouthpiece between the lips, inhale gently, and then press the inhaler to release a measured dose of nicotine. The inhalation should be slow and steady; repeat the process as directed by the health‑care professional, typically several times per day.

Serious risks include chest pain, irregular heartbeat, and severe allergic reactions such as swelling, rash, or breathing difficulty. If any of these symptoms occur, discontinue use immediately and seek medical attention, as they may indicate a potentially life‑threatening condition.

Individuals with recent myocardial infarction, uncontrolled hypertension, or severe cardiac arrhythmias should avoid the inhaler unless cleared by a physician. It is also contraindicated for people who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or who are using other nicotine‑containing products without medical supervision.
