Stop using NICORETTE^® QuickMist^®

Reassess your patient if they need to use NICORETTE® QuickMist® for longer than 6 months to keep from smoking.

It is important to complete treatment. If your patient has a cigarette while trying to quit smoking, instruct them to keep using NICORETTE® QuickMist® and keep trying to quit.

If the amounts of NICORETTE® QuickMist® your patient is taking do not help them stop smoking, reassess them and explore about using more than one type of nicotine replacement therapy at the same time.
