About Niquitin Pre-Quit Clear Patch

Niquitin Pre-Quit Clear Patch is a nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) designed to support adult smokers in the crucial early phase of their quit journey. Each clear patch delivers 21mg of nicotine over 24 hours to help reduce cigarette consumption and nicotine cravings, making it easier to prepare psychologically and physically to quit smoking completely. The clear, discreet patches are worn on the skin and gradually release nicotine, helping you cut down on smoking before your quit date.

This pack contains 7 patches, ideal for a 2-4 week pre-quit programme, allowing you to continue smoking while feeling less urge to light up. Niquitin Pre-Quit Clear Patch is part of a structured quit smoking plan, supporting smokers who typically smoke 10 or more cigarettes a day. Regular use alongside behavioural support increases your chances of successfully quitting.

What Is Niquitin Pre-Quit Clear Patch Used For?

Niquitin Pre-Quit Clear Patch is used to help adult smokers cut down on cigarettes before they fully stop smoking. It releases a controlled amount of nicotine that enters your bloodstream through the skin, easing cravings and withdrawal symptoms while you continue to smoke as needed. This pre-quit approach helps many smokers feel better prepared to quit smoking completely.

Who Is Niquitin Pre-Quit Clear Patch Suitable For?

This patch is suitable for adult smokers aged 18 years and over who smoke around 10 or more cigarettes a day and want to cut down before stopping smoking entirely.
