Mini lozenges helped me to quit.Jun 08, 2011
By Dr. Avery In the long term, 94% of all smoking cessation attempts will fail. 25% of all quit attempts will fail in 24 hours. 50% will fail within 3 days. 75% will fail within 14 days.
However, make it past 14 days, and your odds of success jump from 6% to 24%. Studies (available upon request) have shown that Nicotine Replacement Therapy can double your odds of long term cessation.
After 16 years of smoking, I haven't had a cigarette for 110 days. I honestly don't think I could go back to smoking. I am still addicted to nicotine, but I am using much less of it than I was as a smoker, and at least I'm not smoking. I'll step down to the 2mg after 6 months.
The mini lozenge has the same amount of nicotine as the regular lozenge, but it kicks in a lot faster. It also isn't as intrusive as the larger lozenge, and dissolves much more quickly.
The first few days of any quit are going to be difficult no matter what you do. But once you're past the worst of it, this product is really wonderful for holding nicotine withdrawal at bay.
These are AWESOME!Apr 13, 2012
By ILUAJ I have been a 1/2 pack to 1 pack a day smoker for about 12 years. It's time for me to quit. I am the type of person that doesn't have much willpower or motivation to want to quit smoking but with having a family I want to be around for them. Like many smokers, I absolutely despise nicotine withdrawals. I have thought in the past "Oh I am going to try Nicorette" but never thought it would help me like my brain was thinking it would. So finally I decided to give them a shot. I went with the mini lozenges because I am not a huge gum chewer and not a fan of sucking on bigger hard candies. So the mini lozenges were great for me.
The best way to describe these.....fantastic! I had to cheat my first day because 1/2 the day I did Nicorette and the other 1/2 I did actual cigarettes because I really needed the "throat hit". It was more so to essentially ease myself into them. The second day was all Nicorette and it was awesome. Once my body was able to see that I could get the right amount of nicotine I needed to feel content by using these, it was a breeze from there on. Obviously with smoking, the act of smoking is not the only habit we need to break. I was able to have confidence in using these. These allowed me to feel satisfied all the time to the point that I never had a strong urge/craving for a cigarette.
My husband is a smoker too. While it was tough to use my lozenge around him, it became easier. I even decided a week after I started these to take a puff on one of his cigarettes. Boy was I dumb. It was horrible!! I couldn't believe it. So it was great to know that one moment didn't ruin my chances for success.
My only gripe with these is how strong of a menthol flavor they have. Sometimes it really does burn my lip. But let me explain. For me, I tend to keep my lozenge behind my lip and frequently move it around from one side to the other and up top and on bottom. When I do this I can make my lozenge last for 30-45 minutes therefore making the 27 lozenges per container last longer (you and I both know these things aren't cheap! lol). Realistically you are supposed to suck on them and they last about 10 minutes that way (but minimize swallowing when you do so!) But I have found this methods works for me.
With the menthol and flavoring of the lozenge, this is TMI, but I have to spit out the saliva from my mouth once I have held it for so long. I can't stand to swallow it because it makes the back of my throat scratchy.
Overall, this is a great product. I think you would be highly surprised on how successful you can be with these. These will definitely instill a sense of confidence in you once you realize how well they help. Don't give up! Believe me, I am the laziest procrastinator out there with saying "I'll do it tomorrow" or "I can't do this. These aren't going to help me". But these DO help! No one can change your life for the better but you. And this is a great aid in helping you achieve success. Good luck!

Nasty!Dec 06, 2011
By Debbi J. Riehle I tried these based on everyones review of how it helped them quit smoking. They have the nastiest flavor and would make me sick to my stomach. I couldn't even use them. Would not recommend at all.
