sad advice about not drinking coffee while using the gum, buuuut gotta do what you gotta do! I'm thnking of using the gum, might pick it up tomorrow! Never tried it before, Good info here! And I cut out pop and juice last month just been drinking water anyway,, but coffee also. but i'll try cut out coffee... TRYYYy lol
it makes my stomach hurt :/ like you know how when you chew gum normally, you’ll salivate too, and you typically swallow that saliva. but with the nic gum when i swallow the saliva it feels like it hurts my stomach :/
Eat something light, like some crackers or toast. Maybe some soup. Also it will make it worse if you chew it like regular gum… This is different than gum. Not sure how you are using it, but maybe that could be why you’re having the stomach pain… It may also be ulcers… Some other gastrointestinal issue. This gum can aggravate that stuff… Not sure if you’re still using it or not, but if you are, just put the gum in your mouth, chew 2 times, and park it on one side of your mouth, watch for the tingling, as when the tingling stops you need to switch to the other side of your cheek, same thing, 2 chews, park other side of mouth, repeat. It’s usually 2 minutes, give or take. It could also be that the mg (strength) of gum you are using is too strong for how much you smoke. I think for smokers, the stomach issue’s are usually caused because of that, or an underlying stomach condition, such a ulcers, and gastroenteritis etc… Personally speaking, when I used the gum, along with the patches, they did not help me whatsoever with my cravings… Unsuccessful time after time again. However, I stopped smoking cigarettes and switched to vaping, (which was supposed to be temporary) but I ended up continuing to use it for about a year, maybe less. But, I just started the gum and patches 2 days ago, absolutely no cravings at all! So there is another thing that you could do, kind of like a step, get off the cigarettes, break that habit, the cravings, once that’s gone, then give it some time and then discontinue, and start the patches along with the gum if you think you can handle the gum. Just try to use the gum with less nicotine in it. Or get the nicotine inhaler instead to go with the patches. I highly recommend (if you are still smoking) to switch to a vaping device! Start at a medium strength, then every week or 2 go down a couple of MG’s and keep doing so until you’ve reached the lower amount… Then just stay at that amount and try to puff less, then stop altogether, using the inhaler, patches, gum, whatever works best for you. The thing I hate about the vaping is that you don’t really know how much you are getting, whereas the cigarettes it goes by how much you smoke… But I’m on day 2, and I’ve had literally 0 cravings or withdrawals. With the cigarettes even after 2 hours of using the smoking aids I was dying for a cigarette… I highly recommend this method! I hope you have made it though, and that you did manage to quit smoking. Best of luck to you! 🤞
Hi Ghufraan chishti, nicotine gum does not usually give a nicotine buzz . It's designed to slowly release nicotine over the course of about an hour, to help reduce cravings. We recommend talking to your pharmacist or to a Quit Coach at 1-877-455-2233 if you have questions on using the gum or other quit aids. :)
Every time I would chew the gum after eating I would get really sick for about an hour. If I chewed it on a full stomach I would get extremely sick and throw up a bunch of times. I never had that problem with the nicorette inhaler though.
Hi Dame Deci, Gum should be chewed slowly until a peppery or minty taste emerges, then parked between cheek and gum for one minute to allow for release of nicotine. Continue for 30 minutes or until taste dissipates. Swallow saliva like normal, but do not swallow the gum.
Do not swallow the saliva , it cause hiccup . You can spit , but I also find the answer how much time we put the saliva in my mouth so I place the gum between gum and cheeks and remains the saliva in my mouth for 5 minutes and then spit the saliva.
@@lordddame Use one piece of gum at a time. Put a piece of gum into your mouth, and chew it slowly a few times to break it down. Chewing will release a "peppery" taste. Next, park the gum between your gums and cheek, and leave it there. Repeat the process of chewing and parking for about 15 to 30 minutes, or until there is no more peppery taste released by chewing. The gum is used up at that point. The nicotine from the gum makes its way into your system through the blood vessels that line your mouth. If you chew the gum without parking it, the nicotine will be released directly into the saliva in your mouth and you will swallow it. This may cause a stomachache, hiccups, or heartburn. Also, it may take longer for the nicotine to get into your bloodstream. Avoid drinking coffee, tea, or acidic beverages before or after 15 minutes

@@vicentedaligdig3457 it’s at Walmart’s and other convience stores, for a heavy smoker a days worth is like $5 but you can buy the whole 12 weeks worth of gum for like $70 if you buy it all at once in the bigger box
