OTC: Nicotine Nasal Spray

Do you know anybody in your life who wants to stop smoking? This could be the video for you! I will be talking about a nicotine nasal spray product. Nicotine nasal spray is a product to stop smoking and is sold under the brand name Nicorette NS and requires a prescription from your doctor. It is used as nicotine replacement therapy to satisfy the craving of wanting nicotine during the day. There are many different dosage forms used for nicotine replacement in addition to the nicotine nasal spray, including gum, lozenges, oral inhalations, and a skin patch. The dosing of nicotine nasal spray is: Spray: Initial: 1 to 2 doses/hour (each dose [2 sprays, one in each nostril] contains 1 mg of nicotine); adjust dose as needed based on patient response; do not exceed more than 5 doses (10 sprays) per hour [maximum: 40 mg/day (80 sprays)] or 3 months of treatment. Note: For best results, use at least the recommended minimum of 8 doses per day (less is unlikely to be effective). It is important to choose a quit date to stop smoking, and to start using the nasal spray on that date. Prior to first use, prime the pump by pumping 6 to 8 times until a fine spray appears. It may also need to be primed if it has not been used for more than 24 hours by spraying 1 to 2 times. Blow your nose prior to use and tilt head back slightly while inserting tip of bottle into nostril. Breathe through mouth and spray once in each nostril. Make sure to not sniff, swallow, or inhale through the nose during administration. It is important to avoid contact with skin, eyes, and mouth, and to wait 2 to 3 minutes before blowing your nose. During the first week of use, it is common to have a hot, peppery feeling in the back of the throat or nose, sneezing, coughing, watery eyes, or runny nose. Using this drug on a regular basis during the first week will help you adjust to the side effects. If they do not get better after a week, contact your healthcare provider. Nicotine products should not be used if you are pregnant or have any heart related conditions. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist about your health conditions, and see if this is right for you to take, since nicotine can increase blood pressure and heart rate. If you are pregnant, you are recommended to quit without medication and should instead consider behavioral counseling. Let your doctor or pharmacist know if you have any chronic nasal disorders such as allergies, runny nose, nasal polyps, or sinusitis, as use of this product may not be recommended. This medication should also be used with caution if you have lung complications like asthma or COPD – as this medication can irritate the airways. Common side effects include headache, throat irritation, and stomach effects like nausea, hiccups, constipation, or heartburn. Stop taking this medication and talk to your doctor or pharmacist immediately if you experience symptoms like nausea, vomiting, dizziness, diarrhea, weakness, tremors, mood changes, or a rapid heartbeat – this could indicate signs of nicotine overdose. Sustained use beyond 6 months is not recommended. If you are unable to stop smoking by the fourth week of therapy, discontinuation should be considered. If the bottle breaks, try to not get any of the liquid on your skin. If it does get on your skin, wash it off immediately. In summary, nicotine nasal spray is one of many ways to stop smoking. It’s best when combined with behavioral therapy, and you should talk to your doctor or pharmacist today if you have any questions about the medication or your own health conditions.
