Nicotine Pouches

Nicotine Pouches FAQ's

• What are nicotine pouches?

  Nicotine pouches, also known as snus, nicopods and tobacco-free snus, are small pouches that deliver nicotine without the smoke or tobacco. These teabag-like pouches are placed between the lip and the gum, offering discreet nicotine delivery without smoking. With a wide range of flavours available, such as mint, fruit and coffee, the pouches also come in various strength levels, from nicotine-free all the way to extra strong. Once the pouch is placed in the mouth, the nicotine starts to absorb through the mouth lining and into the bloodstream.
  
  Nicotine pouches are a fantastic alternative to cigarettes and vapes as they do not contain any tobacco or require any devices to use. Ideal for those looking to quit smoking, it’s also a great way to take steps towards breaking the vaping habit.

• What are the different types of nicotine pouches?

  The nicotine pouch market is quickly expanding, and new flavours and pouch types are always being developed. Nicotine levels in the pouches range from 1.5mg up to 20mg per pouch, allowing you to choose the right strength level for your needs. The different flavours are also designed to suit previous smoking or vaping habits, with classic tobacco and menthol options alongside fruitier berry and citrus options. The pouches themselves come in cans, with up to 25 pouches in each one.
  
  With different types of nicotine pouches to choose from, it’s important to explore different brands to find the right match for you. Some pouches offer a dry sensation, whereas others are more moist; there are also size options to consider, including;
  
  Mini Pouches: These tiny pouches are incredibly discreet with low nicotine levels, making them ideal for beginners
  
  Slim Pouches: These slim pouches are smaller than normal pouches, offering a more discreet experience that sits snugly between the lip and gum.
  
  Regular Pouches: Standard nicotine or ‘snus’ pouches have a wider surface area than the slimmer option and can be visible when inserted into place.
  
  Finding the right nicotine pouch for you is key to enjoying the experience. Just like vaping, you may need to experiment with different brands to find the right fit to satisfy your cravings.

• How do you use nicotine pouches?

  Getting to grips with nicotine pouches is straightforward, as all pouches are activated in the same way. Once you master one brand, you will be able to use the same method for all others. Here’s our easy-to-follow guide to using nicotine pouches;
  
  Step One: Open the can and take out a single pouch
  Step Two: Place the pouch between your upper lip and gum

• What is the most popular nicotine pouch strength?

  With a wide range of strengths to choose from, it can be tricky to find the right level for you. Just like vaping, it is important to start with the level that satisfies your nicotine craving levels, then work your way down towards becoming nicotine-free. The most popular snus pouch levels with those looking to quit smoking are strong and extra strong. Lighter or social smokers may find that their nicotine tolerance is lower, which means that a lower strength is more suitable.
  
  Let’s take a closer look at the different nicotine pouch strength levels;
  
  Extra Strong: These powerful pouches really do pack a punch, typically offering 20mg of nicotine in each one. We recommend this strength for heavy ex-smokers who need a more intense ‘hit’.
  
  Strong: Strong nicotine pouches typically deliver between 10mg and 20mg of nicotine, perfect for heavier smokers as they still offer a noticeable ‘kick’.
  
  Regular: Typically containing around 4mg to 8mg of nicotine, these pouches are ideal for regular smokers with a moderate nicotine intake.
  
  Low: Great for beginners, these low-strength pouches deliver a mild effect with around 2mg to 4mg in each one. While the nicotine hit is not as strong as other strengths, there is a subtle hit that is ideal for social smokers.

• What’s in nicotine pouches?

  Typically, nicotine pouches contain premium-quality pharmaceutical-grade nicotine and plant-based materials to bulk out the pouch and make it comfortable to use. Flavourings and sweeteners are then added to give the pouches their individual flavour profiles.

  It is recommended to keep the pouch in place for a maximum of 30 minutes to have the best possible pouch experience. During this time, nicotine and flavours are released into the bloodstream to satisfy cravings.

• Should I chew or swallow nicotine pouches?

  Nicotine pouches are designed to be absorbed through the mouth lining, so you do not need to chew the pouch to release the nicotine. It is important that you do not swallow the nicotine pouch; if this happens and you start to feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately.
