Nicorette Nicotine 10mg Invisi Patches are used to relieve and prevent withdrawal symptoms and reduce the cravings you get when you try to stop smoking or when cutting down the number of cigarettes you smoke. A nicotine patch is a form of nicotine replacement therapy (NRT). It’s a small and transparent patch that you wear on your skin like plaster. The nicotine is then absorbed through your skin to help relieve cravings. It gradually reduces your body’s addiction to nicotine by relieving cravings and other withdrawal symptoms. They provide your body with a low dose of nicotine while avoiding chemicals such as carbon monoxide, tar, lead and ammonia that you would take-in when smoking a cigarette. You can use Nicorette patches as part of a step-down programme, meaning you reduce the strength of the patch after week 8 of use, with strength depending on the number of cigarettes you smoke. Once you have reduced the strength of the patch over time, you can aim to stop using them completely. Light smokers who smoke fewer than 10 cigarettes a day can begin with the 15mg Nicorette Invisipatch, before moving onto the 10mg patch.
