Indications & Clinical Uses

Nicotinell Support Mint, a nicotine replacement therapy, is used to aid smoking cessation by reducing nicotine cravings.

  • Smoking cessation: assists adults in quitting tobacco use by providing controlled nicotine delivery.
  • Nicotine dependence: alleviates withdrawal symptoms during a quit attempt.
  • Relapse prevention: supports maintenance of abstinence after initial cessation.

How It Works

  • Nicotine Polacrilex is a polymer‑bound nicotine complex that releases nicotine gradually when placed in the mouth. The released nicotine binds to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the central nervous system, partially stimulating them and thereby diminishing the intensity of withdrawal symptoms and cravings associated with smoking cessation.

Common Side Effects

  • Mouth irritation: mild soreness or tingling in the oral cavity.
  • Throat irritation: transient discomfort or scratchiness.
  • Nausea: occasional upset stomach.
  • Hiccups: brief episodes after use.
  • Headache: mild to moderate intensity.
  • Dizziness: light‑headed sensation.

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Allergic reaction: rash, swelling, or difficulty breathing.
  • Chest pain: unexpected discomfort in the chest area.
  • Irregular heartbeat: palpitations or arrhythmia.
  • Severe mouth ulcer: persistent ulceration beyond normal irritation.
  • Hypertension: elevated blood pressure in susceptible individuals.
  • Respiratory distress: shortness of breath not related to normal use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Nicotinell Support Mint is an over‑the‑counter nicotine replacement product designed to help adult smokers quit by delivering a controlled amount of nicotine to reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms during a quit attempt.

Nicotine polacrilex is a polymer‑bound nicotine complex that releases nicotine slowly when placed in the mouth. The nicotine then binds to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the brain, providing partial stimulation that eases withdrawal and diminishes the urge to smoke.

The appropriate dose is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the individual’s smoking history, level of dependence, and response to therapy. Patients should follow the specific instructions provided by their clinician.

Safety in pregnancy and lactation has not been fully established. Women who are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding should discuss potential risks and benefits with their healthcare provider before using this product.

Enquiries can be submitted on the product page at gnhindia.com by specifying the required quantity. 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.

Nicotinell Support Mint offers a mint‑flavored oral formulation that delivers nicotine via a polacrilex complex, providing a gradual release. Compared with nicotine gum or patches, it may be preferred by users who want a discreet, fast‑acting lozenge with a pleasant flavor, while still delivering comparable nicotine doses.

Store the product at ambient temperature, below 25 °C, in its original packaging. Protect it from moisture, excessive heat and direct sunlight to maintain stability and potency throughout its shelf life.

The lozenge is placed in the mouth and allowed to dissolve slowly, without chewing or swallowing whole. Users should avoid eating or drinking for at least 15 minutes after placement to ensure optimal nicotine absorption.

Serious risks include allergic reactions such as rash, swelling or difficulty breathing, as well as cardiovascular events like chest pain or irregular heartbeat, especially in individuals with pre‑existing heart conditions. Any severe or unexpected symptoms should prompt immediate medical attention.

Individuals with known hypersensitivity to nicotine polacrilex or any component of the product, those who are currently using other nicotine replacement therapies, and patients with recent myocardial infarction or uncontrolled hypertension should avoid using this product unless advised otherwise by a healthcare professional.
