For those smoking more than 20 cigarettes a day or heavy vapers (vape frequently or use high strength e-liquid), the 4mg gum will be required.

Dosage
12 years and over: use whenever the urge to smoke or vape is felt or to prevent cravings, following the “chew and rest” technique described on the pack. Maximum dose: 15 pieces of gum per day. Smoking and vaping cessation: replace all cigarettes/e-cigarettes with the gum and reduce the amount of gum used until stopped completely. Cutting down prior to quitting: use the gum as needed between smoking and vaping episodes to prolong smoke/vape-free intervals, reducing smoking and vaping as much as possible before quitting completely. Those who have quit smoking or vaping but are having difficulty discontinuing the gum should speak to a pharmacist or doctor for advice.
