About Nicotine Patches

Nicotine patches are trans-dermal systems used as a stop smoking aid. Typically, a series of patches are worn on the arm, hip or leg for a twelve week period. The patches provide a slow release of nicotine into the body, with the amount distributed slowly decreasing over the treatment cycle. The goal is to help decrease the craving and addition to nicotine. This makes it easier to concentrate on changing habits. The system may be used in conjunction with psychological support, an education program and counseling.^{[9] [10]}

According to the Mayo Clinic, nicotine patches should be applied to dry, clean skin and should not be trimmed or cut. The patch should be applied with light pressure for about 10 seconds. The patch is designed to stay on your skin, even when showering or swimming. If a patch falls off before the scheduled time, replace the patch with a new one. Patches are usually designed to be changed every 16 to 24 hours. The patch may be removed before bed and replaced the next day if sleep disturbances are experienced.^[11]
