Nicotine patch?

The nicotine patch is a small, adhesive square resembling a bandage that has been treated with nicotine. When applied to the body, usually the shoulder or underarm, it aids in the cessation of smoking by distributing a controlled amount of nicotine into the bloodstream over the course of 24 hours.

This nicotine helps curb the body’s craving for cigarettes and negates the other effects of cigarettes produced by actually lighting up.

Other nicotine replacement therapies include lozenges, gums and nasal sprays, all of which deliver nicotine to the bloodstream.

The patch and other nicotine replacement options should never be used in conjunction with smoking, as serious overdose-related health issues may arise.
