Use: Reduces withdrawal symptoms, including nicotine craving, associated with quitting smoking. What is the NicoDerm® CQ® patch and how is it used? NicoDerm® CQ® is a small, nicotine-containing patch. When you put on a NicoDerm® CQ® patch, nicotine passes through the skin and into your body. NicoDerm® CQ® is very thin and uses special material to control how fast nicotine passes through the skin. Unlike the sudden jolts of nicotine delivered by cigarettes, the amount of nicotine you receive remains relatively smooth throughout the 16 or 24 hour period you wear the NicoDerm® CQ® patch. This helps to reduce cravings you may have for nicotine. Questions or comments? Call toll-free 1-800-834-5895 (English/Spanish) weekdays (9:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. ET).
