Nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) has proven to help people seeking to quit smoking. It makes use of nicotine patches that deliver modest nicotine dosages to relieve cravings. Nicotine is progressively absorbed through the skin once nicotine patches are applied. Smokers with a greater dependence level can use the most robust patches, while those with a lower dependence level can use a lesser dosage. The critical advantage of nicotine patches over acute NRT formulations (gum, nasal spray, oral inhaler, and tablet) is the simplicity of compliance, rather than consuming a medicine throughout the day.
Thus, the increasing consumption of tobacco leads to increasing demand for nicotine patches, thereby driving the growth of the transdermal medical patch market.
