What are Nicotine Lozenges?
Nicotine lozenges and tablets are a popular alternative to all nicotine pouches, used by nicotine users across the U.S. Nicotine lozenges are small, dissolvable tablets that contain a certain amount of nicotine. When you put a nicotine lozenge in your mouth, it slowly dissolves, releasing nicotine like a nicotine pouch does orally. Nicotine lozenges are available in various flavors and strengths, allowing users to tailor their nicotine intake based on personal preference and needs.
On Nicokick, you can also find nicotine tablets (which are also known as nicotine mints or mini lozenges) These are small, fast-dissolving tablets that contain nicotine. Each nicotine tablet is made to be placed under the tongue or between the cheek and gum, where the nicotine will be absorbed through the lining of the mouth. This method provides quick and efficient delivery of nicotine into the bloodstream, for an almost instant effect.
What's the Difference Between Nicotine Lozenges & Tablets?
Nicotine lozenges and tablets are both oral nicotine products that look relatively similar. However, there are some differences between nicotine lozenges and tablets, including:
- Dissolving Method: Nicotine lozenges are slowly dissolved in the mouth, while nicotine tablets rapidly dissolve under the tongue or between the cheek and gum.
- Release Speed: Lozenges offer a gradual release of nicotine, providing a longer-lasting experience, whereas tablets provide a quick release for immediate relief from cravings.
- Flavors and Strength Options: Both lozenges and tablets come in various flavors and strengths, allowing you to choose the one that suits your taste preferences and nicotine needs, but there are some differences in the availability of flavors and strengths.
Nicotine Lozenges: How to Use Nicotine Lozenges
Using nicotine lozenges is not like using normal lozenges. However, it takes 2 simple steps to use them:
- Put a lozenge in your mouth between your gums and your cheek. This can create a warm or tingling sensation.
- Leave the lozenge to dissolve slowly over 20-30 minutes, moving it around every so often from one side of your mouth to the other.
NOTE: YOU SHOULD NOT CHEW, SUCK OR SWALLOW THE LOZENGE
