Nicotine gum is widely recognized and recommended as a frontline treatment for individuals looking to quit smoking. It provides a source of nicotine that helps alleviate withdrawal symptoms when individuals stop smoking cigarettes. The gum is chewed to release nicotine, absorbed through the mouth's mucous membranes. This process provides relief from cravings and withdrawal symptoms such as irritability, anxiety, and restlessness, making it easier for smokers to reduce their tobacco consumption and eventually quit smoking altogether gradually.
Furthermore, nicotine gum is classified as a nicotine replacement therapy (NRT), which is intended to provide nicotine to the body without the hazardous toxins present in tobacco smoke. NRTs like nicotine gum help smokers manage their nicotine addiction by providing a safer alternative to smoking. They are available in various strengths, allowing users to tailor their nicotine intake according to their smoking habits and withdrawal symptoms.
The Mexican government operates a national quitline (Línea de la Salud) where smokers can receive free counseling and support from trained professionals to help them quit smoking. The Quitline provides personalized advice, information on cessation methods (including nicotine replacement therapies like nicotine gum), and ongoing support to enhance quit success rates. Additionally, the Mexican public healthcare system, which includes organizations like the Institute of Social Security and Services for State Workers (ISSSTE) and the Mexican Institute of Social Security (IMSS), frequently pays for or subsidizes the cost of NRTs like nicotine gum for those who qualify. This makes cessation aids more accessible and affordable for smokers seeking to quit. Thus, rising government initiatives to quit smoking and the high rate of smokers in the region are driving the growth of the market.
