Smoking is one of the hardest addictions to break.
Nicoderm® is a small clear patch that is placed on the arm. The patch delivers a controlled amount of nicotine to your body, which helps relieve the craving, and other symptoms that come with trying to stop smoking. Over a matter of 10 weeks, the patches gradually release a lower dose of nicotine so you can slowly wean yourself from the addiction to nicotine and break your smoking habit once and for all!
Nicoderm® is sometimes paired with Nicorette® supplements and Nicorette® QuickMist as well. Learn more about Nicorette®. Known as Combination Therapy, combining these two products may help increase your chances for success.
