Product Reviews of NicoDerm CQ Step 1 Clear Patch, 21 mg, 2-Week Kit (14 patches)
Product Review: A big help for the cravings
Summary: 5 Stars
I found that this took the edge off but you still need a strong will to quit. If you don't really want to it wont work. You will notice that the physical cravings will not be there but the mental ones will stay. I am now on my fourth week and the mental craving do go down with time. You need the support of friends and family for this to keep you strong. It is not a wonder drug but it is the only way I know that has worked for me.Product Review: ABSOLUTELY WORKS
Summary: 5 Stars
If you've come this far, you are at least entertaining thoughts about quitting. That's important.
Simply put, the patch worked. I had smoked 1 1/2 packs a day for 29 years, and had attempted to quit cold turkey on numerous occasions. Nothing helped me. I became almost psychotic, and always returned to my cigarettes after a few days.
You must feel like quitting for the patch to work. It's not a silver bullet that takes away all desire for tobacco. It simply takes the big edge off your nicotine withdrawal symptoms, which is a huge boost. You then take care of the motivational "triggers" yourself -- and believe me, it's far easier than you think, once the nicotine cravings are gone. If I can do it, you certainly can, too.
I did not suffer any kind of rash, and the only side effects I had were vivid dreams (nice) and a sort of occasional, pleasant drowsiness.
Within six days of dropping the habit and using the patch, my blood pressure dropped to normal. I had more patience. I breathed deeply and without coughing. My sense of taste and smell improved. My circulation was better (no more cold feet or hands on a chilly night), and I had noticeably more energy. Even my skin improved. And my sex life certainly did, also. There were other, less obvious differences, but ones which I definitely felt. These were evidence of a body beginning to heal itself after 29 years of poisoning.
After two weeks my urges were barely noticeable. After four weeks, I didn't think about cigarettes anymore, and couldn't stand smelling one burning from across the street.
And I gave myself back about 21 hours a week that I would have wasted smoking.
Please, if you have had trouble quitting before, get the patch and follow the schedule. Make the commitment. It's not scary, nor is it torture to say goodbye to those coffin nails. It's an adventure. Within just a few weeks, you'll be looking at smokers with pity (and feeling great while you do). I came through it, and you can too.
Product Review: GREAT PRODUCT
Summary: 5 Stars
ONCE YOU DECIDE TO QUIT WHICH IS THE KEY "YOU HAVE TO WANT TO QUIT" THEN DON'T HESITATE TO PUT ON A PATCH. I SMOKED FOR OVER 20 YEARS AND TRIED UNSUCCESFULLY ON MANY OCCASIONS TO QUIT WITH NO SUCCESS. I REALLY WASN'T READY TO QUIT WHICH IS WHY I FAILED. THIS TIME I MENTALLY PREPARED FOR WEEKS AND CUT DOWN MY DAILY SMOKES UNTIL I KNEW I WAS READY. I WAS DOWN TO MAYBE HALF A PACK WHEN I STARTED WITH THE #2 AND I CAN TELL YOU THAT THE PATCH TOOK AWAY ANY DESIRE TO SMOKE. GRANTED THERE ARE TIMES THAT I GET THE MENTAL URGE TO SMOKE EVEN NOW BUT I LEARNED THAT IF YOU IGNORE IT WITHIN 5 MINUTES IT'S GONE. I AM JUST SO HAPPY TO HAVE FINALLY GIVEN UP THIS TERRIBLE HABIT. BEST OF LUCKProduct Review: Great Item!
Summary: 5 Stars
Works great if you have the will power to stop. These are not magic patches where you never get a craving to smoke again for the rest of your life. But they do work very well as they help stop the cravings. You will still get cravings every once in a while, so you have to have the will to really quit. If you don't REALLY want to quit, no product is going to help you, so don't waste your money until you're 100% ready to stop smoking!Product Review: I would highly recommend Nicroderm CQ over any other patch...
Summary: 5 Stars
I like most others have tried repeatedly to quit smoking. I have failed many, many, many times. I will not say that Nicroderm CQ is what made me stop because that is NOT true. I failed many, many, many times even with the use of Nicroderm CQ. What I will say about Nicroderm CQ is that I truly believe that it gave me the help that I needed to stop smoking when I WAS READY!
Nicroderm CQ does not take away ALL of your cravings but it really does make a lot of them managable. I do not think that I could have done it with out the help of a nicotine patch.
I have also tried other "cheaper" patches and I found that Nicroderm CQ was worth the extra few dollars for a lot of different reasons. The most important reasons are that they stick better. You would think that is not a huge deal but let me tell you when your patch is always falling off then you are not getting the "help" or nicotine from the patch that need. Nicroderm CQ sticks really good. Another reason I would choose Nicroderm CQ is that there is a great support program that comes with the patches. I believe that you really can not quit smoking alone (it would be difficult) and with these patches you don't have to. There is a pamphlet inside the box with phone numbers and a`website. You answer some questions and they do the rest. There is a lot of information, you can call 24 hours a day to talk to someone, and the website is very informational. Support is not only there for you when you are suceeding but support is also there for you if you slip up or even if you fail completely. They do not judge you, instead they provide resources and information about trying again when YOU are ready.
If you are reading my review then I am assuming that either you or someone you know is looking to quit smoking...and no matter what route you or the person who is quitting takes I wish you (or them) the best of luck! :)
