Nicotine gum sucks
Edited on Wed May-05-04 10:51 PM by Taverner
I quit smoking (again) so now im on nicorette

I swear - this is getting more like ChewZ (Scanner Darkly Ref) than I wanted...apparently GlaxoSmithKline (who makes Nicorette) has a board which is comprised of....Tobacco Company Execs!

Ugh....I still haven't stopped sending them cash...

1. Try the lozenges
not so bad comparatively speaking.

2. It's also way too expensive
I'm on Commit lozenges (which IMO are much better than the gum), but they're also made by GlaxoSmithKline. Maybe you could use the generic gum?

3. I have been smoke free for 5 days now
I'm using zyban/welbutrin and it's working great! I don't like the gum, it just prolongs the pain for me.
