Effectively quit smoking with Superdrug's 2mg Nicotine Lozenges, a convenient and clinically proven aid to help you break free from cigarettes. This gradual reduction programme offers a comfortable transition away from nicotine dependence, improving your long-term health.
Your lozenges are a stop smoking aid. They can reduce your urge to smoke by providing some of the nicotine previously inhaled from cigarettes and helps you resist cigarettes. Because the lozenges do not contain the tar or carbon monoxide of cigarette smoke, they do not have the health dangers of tobacco
Do not exceed the stated dose.

• are allergic to nicotine or any of the other ingredients
• suffer from phenylketonuria, a rare inherited metabolic disorder (the lozenges contain a source of phenylketonuria)
