Amazon Basic Care Nicotine Polacrilex Lozenge 4 mg, Cherry Flavor, Stop Smoking Aid, 168 Count

An absolute bargain compared to pharmacy pricing. Plus you get more. Great taste and does the job!

Great for ex smokers! I quit four years ago, but nicotine cravings are real. Nicotine doesn't cause hardly any health issues. Talked to my doctor...he said, have at it.

This is a good deal on a large box of 4 mg lozenges. I prefer the large lozenges to the minis because they last longer and don't make me as dizzy. They seem to be as good as the ones from Nicorette as far as efficacy goes. However, the cherry lozenges aggravate my gum/mouth tissues more than the mint ones. These caused little spots of irritation on my tongue and cheek. While I like the flavor, I didn't like the little sores. I would order this brand again but I wouldn't get cherry--I'd just stick to the mint.

I see some people complaining that it's chalky — it is, but only for a minute. I recommend the cheek at first due to a sticky choking possibility, but I guess that's why gasoline needs warning labels about consumption. Flavor is great, lasts for 30-60 minutes for me.

I quit smoking and smokeless tobacco decades ago. I recently took a couple of puffs off of my wife's cigarette and got a GREAT buzz. I liked it and soon was taking a few puffs every day. The buzz got less and less as my body got used to the nicotine, but I was liking it anyway. Not wanting to go down that road again and doubting my will power, I bought these lozenges. The first day I slipped a lozenge between cheek and gum, I barely thought about smoking, but could feel the nicotine in my system. The lozenges last about an hour if allowed to dissolve by themselves. Remember, I don't have the "habit" which is the hardest part about quitting. These will defiantly help curb your nicotine addiction, but you have to kick the "habit" in other ways. Taste is slightly bitter and mint. I only used two a day for 2 days, then only one for 3 days. Now I chew one piece of basic care gum (about 1/3 the dose) if I think about taking a puff. UPDATE/ADDITION: My buddy is (was) a longtime "smokeless" tobacco user that had tried to quit dipping many times. I told him about these lozenges and he bought some. He has not used any tobacco dip since his second day! He tells me that a lozenge slipped into his usual place between cheek and gum gives him the same "tingle" that tobacco did, and he has almost zero desire to use tobacco now. He's now 1 week tobacco free and only uses 2-4 lozenges a day. It made me feel good to help a friend. I will continue to tout the effectiveness for those who really want to kick tobacco. I have not even thought about smoking since my first review and don't use the lozenges or gum anymore. Be a quitter, try some if you are SERIOUS.

Product is excellent, but Amazon shipping time is always false. If you are a Prime member, and the product ships in one day, it will actually take 3 days. So, order it several days before you need it.

Helped me quit smoking better than patches

Worst nicotine lozenges ever. They leave a white circle around your mouth which is hard to wash off. Will never order again. This review is not for the small football shaped lozenges They are very good and leave no residue.
