Ease into your quit journey with Nicabate® PRE-QUIT

If you've struggled to leave cigarettes behind in the past, there's a good reason to feel confident this time because Nicabate® PRE-QUIT presents a different approach. Nicabate® PRE-QUIT lets you ease into quitting by allowing you to smoke for the first two weeks whilst wearing the patch before you give up all your cigarettes. Nicabate® PRE-QUIT lets you prepare physically and mentally for quitting, giving you a better chance of success when using patches than abrupt quitting.

Nicabate® PRE-QUIT patches can help you to gradually cut down the number of cigarettes you smoke over 2 weeks until you reach your quit date. Nicabate® PRE-QUIT patches release a steady stream of therapeutic nicotine so you may feel less inclined to smoke, which can help you to gradually cut down. After the 2 week PRE-QUIT period you begin the 10-week patch step-down program (Nicabate 24 Hour Patches) to help you work towards quitting.

If you haven't been successful in the past, try Nicabate PRE-QUIT as it helps to ease you into quitting and is the most effective way to quit with patches*.1-4
