FAQs

Who should use the Nicotinell 21mg 24 Hour Patches Step 1?

These patches are designed for adults and adolescents over 12 years who smoke more than 20 cigarettes per day and are looking to quit smoking.

How long should I wear a patch?

You should wear one patch for 24 hours. After 24 hours, remove the old patch and apply a new one to a different skin area.

Can I smoke while wearing the patch?

It is strongly advised not to smoke while using the nicotine patch, as this can lead to excessive nicotine levels and side effects.

What should I do if I get a rash?

Remove the patch and wash the area with soap and water. Do not apply to the irritated area. If the rash is severe or persistent, consult your doctor.

Is this the first step in quitting?

Yes, the 21mg patch is Step 1 in the Nicotinell step-down program, intended for heavier smokers. You will progress to lower strengths (Step 2 and Step 3) as advised.

Can I shower or bathe while wearing the patch?

You can shower or bathe with the patch on, but avoid prolonged exposure to water or high heat (like saunas), as this may affect its adhesion and performance.

How should I store the patches?

Store unused patches in their original pouch at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep them out of the reach and sight of children.

Troubleshooting

Patch is not sticking well.

Ensure the skin is clean, completely dry, and free of hair and lotions before application. Press firmly for at least 10 seconds after applying. Avoid bathing or showering immediately after application.

Skin irritation or rash develops.

Remove the patch immediately and wash the area with soap and water. Do not reapply to the same irritated area. Try a different skin location for the next application. If irritation persists, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.

Experiencing nicotine side effects (e.g., nausea, headache, dizziness).

These may be signs of receiving too much nicotine. Ensure you are not smoking while using the patch. If symptoms are severe or persistent, consult your doctor or pharmacist. You may need to use a lower strength patch or stop using the product.

Patch falls off during the day.

If the patch falls off, reapply a new patch to a different skin area. Ensure it is firmly pressed on. If it continues to fall off, consult your pharmacist or doctor for alternative nicotine replacement therapy options.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Part of a structured, step-down program for a gradual approach to quitting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Ensure the skin area is clean, dry, and free from lotions, oils, or cuts.
  2. Choose a hairless area on your upper arm, hip, or torso.
  3. Open the pouch by tearing along the edge.
  4. Carefully remove the patch from the pouch.
  5. Remove the protective liner from the adhesive side of the patch.
  6. Apply the sticky side firmly to the chosen skin area.
  7. Press down with the palm of your hand for at least 10 seconds to ensure it adheres well.

Compatibility:

  • Suitable for adults and adolescents over 12 years old who smoke more than 20 cigarettes per day.
  • Not suitable for non-smokers, occasional smokers, or individuals with allergies to the patch components.
  • Consult a doctor before use if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have a heart condition, or are under medical supervision.

Care:

  • Wear one patch for 24 hours.
  • After 24 hours, remove the old patch and apply a new one to a different skin area.
  • Avoid exposing the patch to excessive heat or water (e.g., long baths or saunas) as this may affect adhesion and nicotine release.
