QuickMist

This New Year, stick to your resolution to quit smoking with Nicorette QuickMist, the first of its kind instant release mouth spray that gets to work on cravings in 60 seconds.

This innovative product marks a considerable advance for smoking cessation aids, by providing smokers with a unique way to quit.

New Nicorette QuickMist provides fast, effective craving relief making quitting smoking one step closer for the seven million smokers in the UK who try to quit each year. The spray is suitable for both heavy and light smokers and is clinically proven to double the chances of successfully quitting compared to willpower alone.

Gay Sutherland, Research Psychologist at the Tobacco Research Unit, Kings College, says: "For smokers who are looking to quit in 2012, being able to quickly manage cravings is one of the most important aspects. After taking a puff on a cigarette, smokers get nicotine hit to the brain within around 20 seconds. Most nicotine replacement therapies can take between 30 minutes and three hours to deliver their effect so an innovation that can help smokers rapidly manage their cravings could be the key to unlocking smokers from their dependency."

Nicorette QuickMist Mouthspray is easy to use and has a fresh minty taste. It comes in a sleek, small dispenser, enabling smokers to discreetly carry it in their pocket or handbag and combat their cravings wherever or whenever they are tempted to have a cigarette.

Nicorette QuickMist Mouthspray is available in a freshmint flavour from pharmacists and major supermarkets nationwide.  Available in 2 pack sizes. Single RRP £17.99, Double £28.99.
