General

Nicorette Invisi 15 mg Nicotine Patch is a hypoallergenic, discreet patch that suppresses your nicotine cravings for 16 hours. The nicotine patch is small and semi-transparent, making it inconspicuous to use. Nicorette® Invisi respects your smoking rhythm, so there is no need to use the patch at night. Use Nicorette® Invisi in combination with Nicorette® Sugar-Free 2mg chewing gum or Nicorette mouth spray if you are a heavy smoker, suffer from recurring uncontrollable urges to smoke, or if a single form of nicotine replacement therapy has previously proven insufficient. This increases your chances of a successful smoking cessation. Nicorette adds strength to your willpower.

• Apply the nicotine patch in the morning and remove it before bedtime. This prevents sleep disturbances known to be associated with nocturnal nicotine administration
• Clinically tested and hypoallergenic
• Is small, inconspicuous, and discreet to use
• Recommended starting dose if you smoke 15 cigarettes or more per day
• Respects your biorhythm, as it does not need to be worn at night
• Is a medicine for adults. Also available with 10 and 15 mg nicotine per patch
• Combine Nicorette® Invisi with Nicorette® Sugar-Free 2mg chewing gum or mouth spray if you are a heavy smoker
