How it works
Nicotinell Mint 1mg lozenges function as an aid to stop smoking. When you suck on the tablet, nicotine is gradually released. This active ingredient is absorbed directly into the body via the oral mucosa. This helps to soothe withdrawal symptoms and the physical urge for a cigarette, allowing you to work towards a smoke-free life step by step.
