Nicorette is made by Pharmacia AB Sweden. Nicorette is intended to help you, the smoker, to quit smoking.
During the 1960’s it was discovered that smokers among the submarine crew of the Swedish Royal Navy were short-tempered and distracted because there was a smoking ban on board the submarines. The smokers were suffering from nicotine withdrawal.
The Swedish government approached Pharmacia (a Swedish pharmaceutical company) and asked them for their help. In 1967 Ove Fernö, a researcher at Pharmacia (now Pfizer Consumer Healthcare), developed a product that could ease these withdrawal symptoms and help them quit. This was Nicorette Gum.
Nicorette Gum was the first form of Nicotine Replacement Therapy ever invented. It was first registered as a pharmaceutical product in 1978 and sold to the general public.
