How do I use THRIVE Lozenges?
Suck one piece
Rest between cheek and gums
Repeat for 30 minutes
To use THRIVE Lozenges, read the instructions in the box and follow these four simple steps:
- Suck the lozenge until you begin to taste a strong nicotine flavour.
- Rest the lozenge between your cheek and gums and keep it there until the taste fades.
- Start sucking again until a strong taste is noticed.
- Repeat the process for about 30 minutes, which should be long enough for the lozenge to dissolve completely.
Taking breaks between sucking is essential. If more nicotine is released than your mouth is able to absorb, you’ll end up swallowing it and won’t feel the effects.

Experiential benefits of quitting smoking
The benefits of quitting smoking become apparent almost immediately, as you’ll notice an improvement in the way you feel after just a few hours. You’ll notice an increase in physical energy and stamina, and everyday activities like housework and climbing stairs won’t leave you huffing and puffing as much1, helping you to feel a little bit fitter and healthier.
Your sense of taste and smell will also improve. Flavours and scents will be more intense, and food will taste better overall1, so you may find yourself savouring meals in a way you haven’t been able to for years. After a few weeks of not smoking, you might notice some additional subtle-but-positive changes in your day-to-day activities. For example, now that you’re not frequently stopping what you’re doing to light up a cigarette, you may find that you’re a bit more productive – which is great for boosting your professional self-confidence and smashing your next performance review at work!

These experiential benefits of quitting smoking could lead to an increased feeling of joie de vivre and overall wellbeing and satisfaction. Enjoy it! A smoke-free life can be joyful and pleasurable, as well as good for your health.
Financial benefits of quitting smoking
Quitting smoking can be great for your bank balance – tobacco products are expensive! While you may have anticipated the benefit of saving money on things like cigarettes, what you might not have thought about is the fact that if you have life and/or house insurance, your premiums might go down when you quit smoking2, saving you even more money.

There are certain "smoking" moments that are part of every smoker's day.

These are all powerful associations, and it will take time and willpower to overcome them.
