nicorette gum?

Question

does anyone know how much nicorette gum costs?and does it really work?also is it good for you to try to quit smokin with that or is the gum harmful

Answer 1

First of all, if you really, really want to quit smoking, you don't need anything to help you. You HAVE to really want it. If you don't feel you can do it and want some help, then I would recommend the nicorette gum. The flavor has improved since it first came out. There is 4mg and 2mg and there are several flavors. The best are FRESH MINT and FRUIT CHILL and they taste pretty good. It really helped me quit. It is very expensive ($56 for 100 pieces in Duane Reade) but you can find great deals on eBay.

I don't know if the gum is harmful. You can ask your doctor.

Find online support like www.whyquit.com.

I wish you the best and GOOD LUCK!

The Nicorette Gum does have nicotine in it. I don't think this stuff really works. A long time ago I tried it and the taste of the stuff was so horrible that I had to smoke to get the taste out of my mouth. If you are not pregnant, you might want to try Smoke Away. You can buy it just about everywhere and the have a neat online support group too. You can join the support group even if you don't quit with there product. I smoked for ten years and quit with Smoke Away. I haven't had a smoke in 2.5 years. Good luck to you in your quit.

my girlfriend tried it. it costs like 50 bucks for a months worth or something, its kinda expensive, but if you dont smoke cigs during that time, the price will be about the same you'd spend on cigs during that time.
it didnt work for her because she just had a hard time using it correctly. you have to like make sure you dont eat anything an hour before chewing it, and then when you chew it you need to make sure you chew it right cause you have to put it up against your gum when it tingles or soemthing, so its kinda complicated w/ that. that and you have to chew a lot of gum each day so it gets kindahard to remember to not eat an hour before each chew.

im sure the thing works but it was just to hard for her to keep doing it right. if you want to try it i suggest reading instructions on it first before you start buying it because its a lot more complictated than just chewing gum whenever.

right now shes on the patch and says that it seems to be helping her more than the gum, but that just might be because its easier. and she just chews regular gum or eats some kidna of candy to help herself if she gets a real strong craving to smoke

oh yea, and whatever you do, make sure you try and join a support group of some sort to help motivate you while you do it too. also let everyone you know that usually smokes with you or that lends you cigs that your trying to quite and you'd like it if they didnt try and tempt you or anything. also make a list of things that would be reasons to stop smoking, and then look at that list whenever you feel like smoking. for example, you can put 'ill be able to go to dinner or some sort of event indoor w/out having to step outside everyonce in a while or that you wont have to smell bad anymore'

hope it helps out a little bit, good luck!

It is expensive, and does not work..at least not for me..it tastes nasty too........try hypnosis, they have seminars that help you to quit smoking,and not to gain weight when you do quit,and it is only around $40.00..it is also guaranteed, if it doesn't work, you can keep going back for free,,,,,however you have to want to quit,because if you really don't want to quit, the hypnosis will not work.
