Nicotine Alternatives: What are they?

As well as traditional vaping there are other emerging forms of nicotine alternatives that have come to the forefront of the market over the past year.  Two of these are Nicotine Pouches and Nicotine Strips; both of which offer a less intrusive, smokeless and discrete way to satisfy your nicotine cravings.

 

But what exactly are Nicotine Pouches and Nicotine Strips?

In the below table we will explain the differences between the two.


Nicotine Pouches

Nicotine Strips

What are they

Small pouches which are tobacco
free but contain nicotine and
flavourings amongst other
ingredients

Thin strips of dissolvable films
infused with nicotine

How do you use
them?

Place the pouch between your lip
and upper gum to allow nicotine
to be absorbed through the gum
and saliva

Place the strip on your tongue (or
against your cheek) allowing them
to dissolve, releasing nicotine into
the blood stream

Ultimately, it comes down to personal preference to which form you choose to satisfy your cravings. Still, these offer an alternative means to traditional vaping, heat-not-burn technology, and even smoking.

They can also be dual used, for example, you can still be a daily vaper but use pouches or strips during times you need, or want, to be more discreet, such as at work, public transport, in public, etc.  Even though you can mix and match different methods throughout your day to curb your cravings, we do not recommend using multiple forms at the same time (i.e. vaping whilst using a nicotine pouch)
