A to Z of Stopping Smoking

The nicotine inhalator is a form of Nicotine Replacement Therapy. It looks like an old-fashioned cigarette holder, except instead of a cigarette it holds a small cartridge containing a bit of sponge with nicotine in it. The nicotine is absorbed by the mouth and throat and doesn't reach the lungs. 

1. Use it more frequently than on the instructions - inhalators don't provide much nicotine.

2. Keep your hand over the tip of the inhalator to keep it warm when you are puffing on it - this will increase the amount of nicotine you inhale.

3. Use it alongside the nicotine patch.

4. Use it at least once every hour, and don't be afraid to use more if you need to.
