NICOTEX 4mg

Nicotex 4mg belongs to the Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) category of medicines and is classified as a smoking cessation aid. Its therapeutic class is "Neuro CNS" with an action class of "Cholinomimetic Alkaloids". The product is an over-the-counter (OTC) item, though the 4mg strength is typically recommended for individuals who smoke more than 20 cigarettes a day and is best used under medical supervision or with counseling as part of a comprehensive program to quit smoking. The active ingredient is nicotine (in the form of nicotine polacrilex), which helps manage withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings by providing a controlled dose of nicotine without the harmful chemicals found in tobacco smoke, such as tar and carbon monoxide.
