Indications & Clinical Uses

Nicorette Microtab Classic is a nicotine replacement product used to address tobacco‑related dependence.

  • Smoking cessation: helps adult smokers reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms when they stop smoking.
  • Tobacco dependence: provides controlled nicotine to replace cigarettes during quit attempts.
  • Nicotine addiction: supports gradual reduction of nicotine intake as part of a structured cessation program.

How It Works

  • Nicotine in Nicorette Microtab Classic acts as a partial agonist at neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, especially the α4β2 subtype. By stimulating these receptors, it delivers a low, steady nicotine dose that alleviates withdrawal while allowing the brain to adapt, thereby reducing the urge to smoke and facilitating the cessation process.

Side Effects

Adverse reactions may occur with sublingual nicotine tablets.

Common Side Effects

  • Mouth irritation or tingling sensation.
  • Nausea or mild stomach upset.
  • Dizziness or light‑headedness.
  • Headache.

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis) with swelling of face, tongue or throat.
  • Chest pain or irregular heartbeat.
  • Persistent vomiting or severe nausea.

Precautions & Warnings

When using Nicorette Microtab Classic, consider the following safety measures.

  • Assess nicotine dependence: confirm the patient is an adult smoker seeking cessation.
  • Avoid use in non‑smokers or occasional smokers.
  • Monitor cardiovascular status: nicotine can raise blood pressure and heart rate.
  • Use with caution in pregnancy or breastfeeding; safety data are limited.
  • Do not combine with other nicotine replacement products to prevent overdose.
  • Store at ambient temperature: keep in the original pack, protect from moisture.

Avoid Interactions

Nicotine may interact with several medication classes.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Other nicotine replacement products: risk of nicotine overdose.
  • Monoamine oxidase inhibitors: may amplify hypertensive response.
  • Strong CYP2A6 inhibitors: can alter nicotine metabolism and increase exposure.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

  • Antihypertensive drugs: nicotine may reduce their effectiveness.
  • Insulin or oral hypoglycemics: nicotine can affect glucose control.
  • Theophylline: nicotine may increase plasma concentrations, requiring dose adjustment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Nicorette Microtab Classic is an over‑the‑counter nicotine replacement therapy designed to help adult smokers quit by reducing cravings and withdrawal symptoms during a smoking cessation program.

The nicotine in the microtab acts as a partial agonist at nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the brain, delivering a low, steady dose that eases withdrawal while allowing the body to adjust to lower nicotine levels over time.

The appropriate dose is determined by the prescribing clinician based on the individual’s smoking habits, dependence level, and previous cessation attempts. Patients should follow the healthcare professional’s instructions.

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

GNH India supplies hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.

Both deliver nicotine to reduce cravings, but the microtab provides rapid sublingual absorption, offering quicker relief of urges, whereas patches release nicotine slowly over 16–24 hours. Choice depends on patient preference, lifestyle and clinical guidance.

Store the tablets at ambient temperature, below 25 °C, in the original container to protect them from moisture and excessive heat. Keep out of reach of children.

Place one tablet under the tongue and allow it to dissolve completely without chewing or swallowing. Do not eat or drink for several minutes after placement to ensure optimal absorption.

Serious risks include severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis, chest pain or irregular heart rhythms, and persistent vomiting. If any of these occur, discontinue use and seek immediate medical attention.

The product should not be used by non‑smokers, occasional smokers, individuals with known hypersensitivity to nicotine, or patients for whom nicotine replacement therapy is contraindicated, such as those with recent myocardial infarction without physician approval.
