How Nicotex 4 Fruit Burst Sugar Free Nicotine Gum works
Nicotine polacrilex releases nicotine slowly when the gum is chewed and absorbed through the lining of the mouth. This provides controlled nicotine levels to reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms while you stop smoking, without exposure to tobacco smoke toxins.
How to take Nicotex 4 Fruit Burst Sugar Free Nicotine Gum
Chew-and-park method: Chew slowly until a tingling/peppery taste appears, then park between gum and cheek; repeat for ~30 minutes. Use 4 mg strength for those who smoke their first cigarette within 30 minutes of waking or who have strong cravings. Typically 1 gum when craving occurs (about every 1–2 hours initially), then gradually reduce; do not exceed the maximum number of gums per day as advised on label/doctor. Avoid eating or drinking (especially acidic beverages like coffee/soft drinks/juice) for 15 minutes before and during chewing.
Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
Missed dose and overdose
If you miss a dose
Take the missed dose of Nicotex as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed one and carry on with the usual schedule. Do not take two doses together to make up for a missed dose.
If you take too much
Taking more Nicotex than prescribed can be harmful. If you suspect an overdose, contact a doctor or go to the nearest emergency department at once, and carry the pack or strip with you. In India the emergency number is 112.

Safety advice for Nicotex 4 Fruit Burst Sugar Free Nicotine Gum
| Pregnancy | Consult doctor (use only if clearly needed; behavioral support preferred). |
|---|---|
| Alcohol | Use with caution (alcohol may trigger cravings; no direct major interaction but avoid excessive use during quit attempt). |

Warnings and precautions
For adult smokers/tobacco users; not for non-smokers. Do not smoke or use other nicotine products concurrently unless advised by a doctor (risk of nicotine overdose). Use with caution and seek medical advice if you have heart disease (recent heart attack, arrhythmias, angina), uncontrolled high blood pressure, stroke, hyperthyroidism, diabetes, pheochromocytoma, or severe liver/kidney disease. Chewing too fast can cause nausea or hiccups. Keep out of reach of children; nicotine is toxic if swallowed. If dentures/TMJ problems, gum may be difficult to use. Stop and seek help if symptoms of overdose occur (nausea, vomiting, sweating, palpitations, dizziness).
Interactions with other medicines
May alter effects of medicines affected by smoking cessation (e.g., theophylline, clozapine, olanzapine, caffeine, warfarin) because stopping smoking changes CYP1A2 activity. Caution with other nicotine products (patch/lozenge), and with drugs that increase heart rate/blood pressure. Consult doctor if on antidiabetic therapy as dose adjustment may be needed after quitting smoking.
How to store Nicotex 4 Fruit Burst Sugar Free Nicotine Gum
