Indications & Clinical Uses

  • Niquitin Cq, a nicotine replacement therapy, is used in the management of nicotine dependence.
  • Smoking cessation: helps adult smokers reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms.
  • Tobacco dependence: supports gradual reduction of nicotine intake.
  • Relapse prevention: assists former smokers in maintaining abstinence.

How It Works

  • Nicotine in the patch binds to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the central nervous system, providing a controlled release of nicotine that mimics the plasma levels achieved by smoking. This partial agonist activity reduces withdrawal symptoms and cravings while allowing the user to taper nicotine exposure over time.

Side Effects

Common Side Effects

  • Skin irritation at the application site: redness, itching, or mild rash.
  • Local itching or burning sensation.
  • Headache.
  • Nausea.

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Allergic reaction: swelling, hives, or difficulty breathing.
  • Severe skin reaction: blistering or dermatitis.
  • Cardiovascular symptoms: dizziness, palpitations, or hypertension.

  • Cardiovascular assessment: evaluate heart disease or hypertension before initiating therapy.
  • Non‑smoker use: avoid use in individuals who do not smoke.
  • Concomitant nicotine products: do not combine with other nicotine replacement therapies.
  • Pediatric safety: keep patch out of reach of children and pets.
  • Store at room temperature: keep in original packaging, protect from moisture and direct heat.

Avoid Interactions

Frequently Asked Questions

Niquitin Cq is a nicotine replacement therapy delivered via a transdermal patch. It is used to help adult smokers quit by reducing cravings and alleviating withdrawal symptoms associated with nicotine dependence.

The nicotine in the patch acts as an agonist at nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the brain. By providing a steady, controlled dose of nicotine, it mimics the effect of smoking, lessening withdrawal and allowing a gradual reduction in nicotine dependence.

The appropriate dose and duration are determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the individual’s smoking habits, level of dependence, and medical history. The prescriber will select the suitable patch strength and schedule.

The safety of nicotine patches during pregnancy or lactation has not been definitively established. Healthcare providers should weigh potential risks and benefits before prescribing to pregnant or nursing individuals.

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 oral nicotine replacement products, the transdermal patch provides a more consistent nicotine level, reducing peaks and troughs that can trigger cravings. It also eliminates the need for multiple daily doses, offering convenience and improved adherence for many users.

Store the patch at room temperature, below 25 °C, in its original sealed pouch. Protect it from moisture, direct sunlight and excessive heat to maintain its integrity and ensure consistent nicotine delivery.

The patch is applied to clean, dry, hair‑free skin on the upper body or upper arm. Press firmly for several seconds to ensure good contact, and replace it with a new patch according to the prescriber’s schedule, typically every 24 hours.

Serious risks include severe allergic reactions such as swelling, hives, or breathing difficulty, and significant cardiovascular effects like hypertension, palpitations, or dizziness. Users should seek immediate medical attention if any of these symptoms occur.

Individuals who are not current smokers, those with uncontrolled hypertension, recent heart attack, severe cardiac arrhythmias, or known hypersensitivity to nicotine or patch components should avoid using Niquitin Cq. Consultation with a healthcare professional is essential.
