How to Use a Nicotine Pouch

Step by Step

1. Open the tin and take one pouch.
2. Tuck it between your gum and upper lip, either side.
3. You may feel a tingle as the nicotine and flavour release; that's normal.
4. Leave it in for as long as you like, up to about 30–45 minutes.
5. Take it out and put it in the lid compartment or a bin.

Tips

• Move it to the other side if the tingle feels strong.
• Don't swallow the pouch.
• Keep tins away from children and pets; nicotine is poisonous if swallowed.

What to Expect

The first few minutes are when the flavour and tingle are strongest. After that it settles. It's normal for the pouch to feel a little wet as it releases. There's no need to chew or move it around.

Etiquette

• Use the lid compartment for used pouches, then put them in the garbage.
• Don't flush pouches or leave them on the ground.
• Check the rules at work, on flights and in public places.

Storage

Keep tins closed, cool and dry, and out of reach of children and pets. Nicotine can be poisonous if swallowed; if a child or pet swallows a pouch, call Poison Control or a vet right away.
