(Google Books) Tutti Frutti Flavour Spray dried (contains traces of sulphites, orange oil, orange oil terpenes, isoamyl butyrate, citral, and gum acacia) Nicorette is the brand name of a number of products for nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) that contain nicotine polacrilex. Developed in the late 1970s in Sweden by AB Leo [ sv] in the form of a chewing gum, Nicorette was the first nicotine replacement product on the market. [2] Stopping smoking: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in tobacco smoke induce the metabolism of drugs metabolised by CYP 1A2 (and possibly by CYP 1A1). When a smoker stops smoking, this may result in slower metabolism and a consequent rise in blood levels of such drugs. This is of potential clinical importance for products with a narrow therapeutic window, e.g. theophylline, clozapine and ropinirole.

A spray of nicotine is available. [27] Tentative evidence supports that it is better than a placebo. [27] MHRA suggests not to use more than 2 sprays at a time, up to 4 sprays per hour and no more than 64 sprays per 24 hours period.

Up until recently cardiovascular disease was considered to be a contraindication to nicotine replacement therapy products. However, in 2003, the French Agency for the Safety of Health Products ( AFSSAPS) removed all cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease contraindications.

The rationale is that the benefit of nicotine replacement therapy outweighs the risks of nicotine medication, even in smokers with cardiovascular disease. [18] Although the frequency in the active group is less than that of the placebo group, the frequency in the specific formulation in which the PT was identified as a systemic ADR was greater in the active group than the placebo group. Nicotine should be avoided during breast-feeding. The relatively small amounts of nicotine found in breast milk during NRT use are less hazardous to the infant than second-hand smoke. Intermittent dose forms would minimize the amount of nicotine in breast milk and permit feeding when levels were at their lowest. Do not to inhale while spraying to avoid getting spray down your throat. For best results, don't swallow for a few seconds after spraying. Do not smoke or use other nicotine products (including snuff, chewing tobacco, nicotine patches, inhaler, or nasal spray) while you are using Nicorette gum or lozenges.

Do not eat or drink anything within 15 minutes before using the gum or lozenge or while the medicine is in your mouth.
