Nicotinell Mint Mundspray (Nicotine)

Nicotinell Mint Mundspray provides nicotine replacement therapy to support cessation of tobacco use.

• Smoking cessation: assists adult smokers in reducing cravings and withdrawal symptoms while quitting.
• Tobacco dependence: supplies a controlled nicotine dose to replace cigarettes and facilitate abstinence.
• Relapse prevention: offers a short‑term nicotine source to help maintain abstinence during high‑risk periods.

• Nicotine in the mouth spray is absorbed through the oral mucosa and binds to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the central nervous system. This agonist activity partially stimulates the receptors, reducing the intensity of withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with abrupt cessation of tobacco smoking, thereby supporting the quitting process.

Nicotinell Mint Mundspray may cause a range of adverse reactions.
