Product overview
Nicorette Inhalator 15mg – for smokers who miss the habit
Giving up cigarettes is about more than nicotine. For many people, a big part of smoking is the routine – reaching for a cigarette, bringing it to your lips and having something to do with your hands. The Nicorette Inhalator is designed for exactly this. It's a plastic mouthpiece fitted with a replaceable 15mg nicotine cartridge that you puff on whenever a craving strikes, relieving withdrawal while keeping the familiar hand-to-mouth ritual that so many smokers miss when they quit.
How the inhalator helps you quit
Nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) makes stopping smoking easier by giving you a controlled, lower dose of nicotine – but without the tar, carbon monoxide and other harmful chemicals found in cigarette smoke. This takes the edge off the cravings and withdrawal symptoms that make quitting so hard, such as irritability, restlessness, difficulty concentrating, low mood, disturbed sleep and increased appetite. The inhalator is a fast-acting form, so it's handy for those sudden, on-the-spot cravings. It isn't a cure for smoking-related illness and it isn't harmless, but it is far safer than continuing to smoke, and it gives you a real head start on quitting for good.
How to use the Nicorette Inhalator
Click a 15mg cartridge into the mouthpiece and puff gently, drawing the vapour into your mouth rather than deep down into your lungs – this isn't like inhaling cigarette smoke. When a craving hits, take shallow puffs over around 20 minutes, or puff on and off for longer if you prefer. The nicotine is absorbed through the lining of your mouth and throat. One cartridge lasts for roughly 40 minutes of intensive use, spread across the day, and you can use several cartridges a day depending on how strong your cravings are. Replace a cartridge once the taste fades and it feels empty.
Who is it best for?
The inhalator suits anyone who misses the physical act of smoking as much as the nicotine itself. If you find that gum, lozenges or patches deal with the cravings but leave you fidgeting for something to hold, the hand-to-mouth design of the inhalator can be the missing piece. It's discreet, reusable and lets you control exactly when you top up your nicotine.
Can you use it with a patch?
Yes. Many people quit most successfully using combination therapy – a nicotine patch to deliver a steady background level of nicotine all day, plus a fast-acting form like the inhalator for breakthrough cravings. If a craving breaks through while you're wearing a patch, a few puffs on the inhalator can help you ride it out. A pharmacist can help you choose the right combination and strength for how much you smoke.
Getting the most from your quit attempt
NRT works best when you have a plan and some support behind you. Set a quit date, keep your inhalator within easy reach, and use it as soon as a craving builds rather than waiting for it to peak. Combining the inhalator with your local NHS Stop Smoking Service or advice from your pharmacist gives you the best possible chance of staying smoke-free. If you slip up and have a cigarette, don't give up – keep using the inhalator and carry on with your quit attempt.

Important information
Do not smoke while using the Nicorette Inhalator. This is a nicotine-containing product, so keep it out of the sight and reach of children and pets, for whom nicotine can be harmful. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it's best to try to stop smoking without medicines, but if NRT helps then it is preferable to continuing to smoke – speak to your midwife, GP or pharmacist first. Ask your pharmacist or doctor before use if you have recently had a heart attack or stroke, have unstable angina or an irregular heartbeat, diabetes, an overactive thyroid, a phaeochromocytoma, a stomach ulcer, or liver or kidney problems. Always read the pack leaflet before use.
Frequently asked questions
How do I use the Nicorette Inhalator?
Click a 15mg cartridge into the mouthpiece and puff gently, drawing the vapour into your mouth – not deep into your lungs. Use it whenever a craving strikes, taking shallow puffs over around 20 minutes. The nicotine is absorbed through the lining of your mouth and throat.
Do I inhale it deep into my lungs like a cigarette?
No. Unlike a cigarette, you puff the vapour into your mouth and throat, where the nicotine is absorbed – you don't need to draw it down into your lungs. Shallow, gentle puffs work best.
How long does one cartridge last?
Each 15mg cartridge provides roughly 40 minutes of intensive puffing, which you would usually spread across the day rather than use all at once. How many you need depends on how strong your cravings are; replace a cartridge once the taste fades and it feels empty.
Can I use the inhalator together with a nicotine patch?
Yes. Using a patch for steady, all-day nicotine plus the inhalator for sudden cravings – known as combination therapy – helps many people quit. It's a good option if cravings break through while you're wearing a patch. Ask your pharmacist to help you choose the right strengths.
How long should I use the Nicorette Inhalator for?
Most quit programmes last around 8 to 12 weeks, gradually reducing how much you use as your cravings ease. Some people need longer, and that's fine – it's far safer than smoking. A pharmacist or your local Stop Smoking Service can help you plan and step down.
Is the inhalator bad for my lungs?
The inhalator delivers nicotine without the tar, carbon monoxide and other harmful chemicals produced when tobacco burns, so it's far safer for your lungs than smoking. You puff into your mouth rather than your lungs. It isn't completely risk-free, but it is a big step in the right direction.
How will I know when a cartridge is empty?
You'll notice the nicotine taste and the sensation in your mouth start to fade. When puffing no longer gives that familiar taste, the cartridge is spent – simply remove it and click in a fresh one.
Can I use it if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
If you're pregnant or breastfeeding it's best to try to quit without medicines, but if you're struggling, NRT is preferable to carrying on smoking. Speak to your midwife, GP or pharmacist first so they can advise on the best form and how to use it.
