NICORETTE® Microtab is a nicotine
replacement therapy (NRT). It is used to
relieve withdrawal symptoms and reduce
the cravings for nicotine that you get when
you try to stop smoking, or when you are
cutting down the number of cigarettes you
smoke while trying to stop smoking.

You may experience unwanted effects
because by stopping smoking you have
reduced the amount of nicotine you are
taking. You may also experience these
effects if you use too few NICORETTE®
Microtabs before you are ready to reduce
your nicotine intake.
! These effects include:
„ irritability or aggression
„ feeling low
„ anxiety
„ restlessness
„ poor concentration
„ increased appetite or weight gain
„ urges to smoke (craving)
„ night time awakening or sleep
disturbance
„ lowering of heart rate
„ dizziness, lightheadedness, blurry vision,
nausea
„ cough
„ constipation
„ bleeding gums
„ mouth ulcers
„ swelling of the nasal passages and back of
the throat

Before taking any medication, it is important to read the Patient Information Leaflet. You can find information leaflets for your medicines by typing them into the search bar at medicines.org, or by contacting us.

How to use nicorette® microtab
Place the microtab under your tongue. Allow it to slowly dissolve (about 30 minutes). This will release nicotine, which
you will absorb through the lining of your mouth. NICORETTE® Microtab should NOT be chewed or swallowed.

Do not use nicorette® microtab:
„ if you have an allergy to nicotine or any
of the other ingredients.
! Talk to your doctor, nurse or pharmacist...
„ if you are pregnant or breast-feeding
– you may be able to use nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) to help you
give up smoking but you should try to
give up without it. See “If you are
pregnant or breast-feeding” section.
„ if you are in hospital because of heart
disease (including heart attack, disorders
of heart rate or rhythm, angina, high blood pressure or stroke).
In other heart conditions not requiring you
to be in hospital, using NRT is better than
continuing to smoke.
„ if you have a stomach ulcer, duodenal
ulcer, inflammation of the stomach or
inflammation of the oesophagus (passage between the mouth and stomach).
„ if you have liver or kidney disease.
„ if you have an overactive thyroid gland
or have a phaeochromocytoma (a tumour
of the adrenal gland that can affect blood pressure) – your doctor will have told you
this.
„ if you have diabetes – monitor your
blood sugar levels more often when
starting to use NICORETTE® Microtab
as you may find your insulin or medication
requirements alter.
„ if you are taking other medicines such
as theophylline, clozapine or ropinirole.
Stopping smoking or cutting down may
require the dose of these medicines to be
adjusted.
➤If any of these apply talk to your
doctor, nurse or pharmacist.
! If you are pregnant or breast-feeding
If you are pregnant: ideally, you should
try to give up smoking without NRT. If
you can’t manage this, you can use NRT as
the risks to your baby are far less than
smoking, however you should talk to your
doctor, nurse or pharmacist for advice.
Products that are used intermittently,
including NICORETTE® Microtab, may be
preferable to nicotine patches. However,
patches may be more suitable if you have
nausea or sickness. If you do use patches
take them off before going to bed at night.
If you are breast-feeding: ideally, you should
try to give up smoking without NRT.
