    If you are under 18 years of age, ask a doctor before use.  Before using this product, read the enclosed user's guide for complete directions and other important information.  Stop smoking completely when you begin using the gum.  If you smoke your first cigarette more than 30 minutes after waking up, use 2 mg nicotine gum.  If you smoke your first cigarette within 30 minutes of waking up, use 4 mg nicotine gum according to the following 12 week schedule:  Weeks 1 to 6: 1 piece every 1 to 2 hours; Weeks 7 to 9: 1 piece every 2 to 4 hours; Weeks 10 to 12: 1 piece every 4 to 8 hours.  Nicotine gum is a medicine and must be used a certain way to get the best results.  Chew the gum slowly until it tingles.  Then park it between your cheek and gum.  When the tingle is gone, begin chewing again, until the tingle returns.  Repeat this process until most of the tingle is gone (about 30 minutes).  Do not eat or drink for 15 minutes before chewing the nicotine gum, or while chewing a piece.  To improve your chances of quitting, use at least 9 pieces per day for the first 6 weeks.  If you experience strong or frequent cravings, you may use a second piece within the hour.  However, do not continuously use one piece after another since this may cause you hiccups, heartburn, nausea or other side effects.  Do not use more than 24 pieces a day.  It is important to complete treatment.  Stop using the nicotine gum at the end of 12 weeks.  If you still feel the need to use nicotine gum, talk to your doctor.  To increase your success in quitting:  You must be motivated.  Use enough - Chew at least 9 pieces of nicotine polacrilex gum per day during the first six weeks.  Use long enough - Use nicotine polacrilex gum for the full 12 weeks.  Use with a support program as directed in the enclosed user's guide.  To remove the gum, tear off single unit.  Peel off backing starting at corner with loose edge.  Push gum through foil.  Each piece contains:  Calcium 110 mg, sodium 11 mg.  Store at 20 - 25°C (68 - 77°F).  Protect from light.

    I saw another site that 42 of us complained about this. Walgreens are you really listening. Some of us use this because we work for the airlines and it helps us to maintain since we can't smoke on flights. I will be buying the other brand if you won't be changing this. Please also take the yellow out as it also looks like you are chewing tobacco when you use it. What a great improvement.

    Why did they change the formula to the nicotine gum? I found the old gum far superior to Nicorette. I'm not sure but it seems like they flavored this new type with banana and made it softer. PLEASE CHANGE IT BACK!

    Walgreen's has changed the taste so I'll be using a different brand.
