Nicotine Replacement Therapy

Nicotine replacement therapy supplies controlled nicotine without smoke or vapor—paired with cue habit change and a planned step-down schedule.

Nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) delivers controlled nicotine—patches, gum, lozenges, or spray—without combustion toxins while you break hand-to-mouth and cue habits. Dose should match prior intake then step down on a schedule; combining patch plus short-acting forms helps heavy users under clinician guidance.

NRT is not a forever crutch when tapered intentionally.

Common questions

  • Can you use NRT while still vaping sometimes?

    Dual use raises nicotine load and blunts habit change—clinicians usually push a clear quit day for vaping or smoking, then NRT only. Track total nicotine milligrams if tapering both.
