Indications & Clinical Uses

Nicorette Microtab Classic is a nicotine replacement therapy used to support smoking cessation and manage nicotine dependence.

  • Smoking cessation: helps adult smokers stop using tobacco products.
  • Tobacco dependence: reduces cravings during the quitting process.
  • Nicotine withdrawal: alleviates symptoms such as irritability, difficulty concentrating, and increased appetite.

How It Works

  • Nicotine in Nicorette Microtab Classic acts as a partial agonist at nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the central nervous system. By stimulating these receptors, it provides a controlled level of nicotine that diminishes withdrawal symptoms and cravings while allowing the user to gradually reduce nicotine exposure during the cessation process.

Side Effects

Nicorette Microtab Classic may cause a range of adverse reactions, most of which are mild and transient.

Common Side Effects

  • Mouth irritation or tingling.
  • Hiccups.
  • Nausea.
  • Dizziness.
  • Headache.
  • Throat irritation.

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Allergic reaction (rash, swelling, difficulty breathing).
  • Chest pain or palpitations.
  • Severe nausea or vomiting.
  • Hypotension.
  • Irregular heartbeat.
  • Persistent or worsening cough.

Precautions & Warnings

When using Nicorette Microtab Classic, consider the following precautions:

  • Assess nicotine dependence level: determine appropriate titration based on smoking history.
  • Avoid use in children: product is not intended for persons under 18 years of age.
  • Monitor cardiovascular status: patients with heart disease should consult a physician before use.
  • Do not use with other nicotine products: avoid concurrent nicotine replacement to prevent overdose.
  • Store at ambient temperature: keep below 25 °C, retain in the original pack, and protect from moisture.

Avoid Interactions

Nicotine replacement therapy can interact with several medicines. Review the following interactions before starting Nicorette Microtab Classic.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Concurrent use of monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs): may increase risk of hypertensive crisis.
  • Use with other nicotine replacement products: risk of nicotine overdose.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

  • Beta‑blockers: nicotine‑induced tachycardia may be masked.
  • Certain antidepressants (SSRIs): monitor for increased nausea or dizziness.

Frequently Asked Questions

Nicorette Microtab Classic is an over‑the‑counter nicotine replacement therapy designed to help adult smokers quit tobacco. It delivers a controlled dose of nicotine through a sublingual tablet, reducing withdrawal symptoms and cravings during the cessation process.

Nicotine acts as a partial agonist at nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the brain. By modestly stimulating these receptors, it eases the physiological and psychological symptoms of nicotine withdrawal while allowing the user to taper nicotine exposure gradually.

The exact dosing regimen is set by a qualified healthcare professional based on the individual's smoking history and dependence level. The prescriber determines the number of tablets per day and the duration of therapy.

Safety data for nicotine replacement therapy in pregnancy and lactation are limited. Women who are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding should discuss potential risks and benefits with their healthcare provider before using the product.

To place an order, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnhindia.com, specifying 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 patches or gum, the microtab provides rapid sublingual absorption, offering quicker relief of cravings. Unlike patches, it does not require continuous skin contact, and unlike gum, it does not involve chewing, which some users find more convenient.

Store the tablets at ambient temperature, below 25 °C, in the original blister pack. Keep them away from moisture and direct sunlight. Do not refrigerate or freeze the product, as temperature extremes can affect tablet integrity.

Place one tablet under the tongue and allow it to dissolve completely without swallowing. Do not chew or swallow the tablet whole. The sublingual route ensures rapid absorption of nicotine into the bloodstream.

Serious adverse reactions include allergic responses such as rash, swelling, or difficulty breathing, as well as chest pain, palpitations, severe nausea, vomiting, hypotension, or irregular heart rhythm. If any of these occur, discontinue use and seek immediate medical attention.

The product should not be used by individuals under 18 years of age, those who are not currently smoking or using nicotine, persons with known hypersensitivity to nicotine or any tablet excipients, and patients with severe cardiovascular disease unless advised by a physician.
