February 25, 20224 yr I did for a bit. However, I preferred the gum. And greatly prefer nothing as I think it gets us out of the nicotine loop faster. Blessing to you.
February 26, 20224 yr No Kdad never used any NRTs but if you think it will help you to stay quit by all means use it. I hope you are doing well. Just get yourself in the right mindset and it will happen. By no means is it easy. Just keep saying nope. We just have to stay the course and eventually we will get more good days mixed in with these bad ones. I am routing for you
February 26, 20224 yr I did in the beginning after using the patch. Didn't really care for them, preferred the gum. I used the coated gum, I alternated w either fruit flavor or ice mint at 2 mg.
February 26, 20224 yr K dad ... Try the lozenges.....it might work for you .... We are all different ....never give up...trying to give up.... As long as you stick to the recommended dose .... Hoping you get back here in your seat ...🐸
February 26, 20224 yr Author I am on lozenges. So far so good. It certainly is taking the edge off. I have a good feeling about the future.
February 26, 20224 yr I am happy to hear the lozenges are helping. I know for me they were salvation. I did find that I could get them cheaper on Amazon that the name brand at the drugstore, if that helps, take a look. GO KDAD, you are getting in the groove.
February 26, 20224 yr That's the way to do it Kdad. If they work for you that's a good thing. Hang in there and stay strong.

February 27, 20224 yr Author Still staying strong. The NRT is really working. I don't think about smoking all the time. Just a little now and then.
February 27, 20224 yr I am glad they are helping, I do not know if I could have done it without them. I would suggest that as time goes on, you want to start slowly tapering down. For me I would use one but as soon as I felt relief from the craving I would take it out of my mouth as put it on a saucer. Leave it until you need to fight off a crave. Sounds crazy but it worked for me. Be sure not to leave it where a child or pet could get to it.

February 28, 20224 yr I used gum to get me through the first few months...after the first few weeks every second gum I'd just have a normal one instead...
