It actually works
I've smoked for about 8 years quite heavily and would get highly irritated (even upset) when trying to quit cold turkey or using patches. Using this on an empty stomach is a bad idea, spraying under my tongue works but I hold my breath for 30 seconds before swallowing, it really makes the cravings go away almost instantly! I have heaps of trouble using the locking mechanism on the spray :/ but overall I think is product is fantastic!! And would definitely recommend to anyone trying to quit

Not suitable for everyone
I tried this product about a week ago, and although following the instructions of use & also some online recommendations from other users, I had the problem of instantaneous hiccups & an involuntary urge to throw up. This did not disperse with time like some users said. I tried the suggestion of holding my breath for a few seconds to make sure the spray wasn't hitting my throat & also spraying the inside of my cheeks to avoid it hitting my throat to no avail. So I had to stop using it.
It also feels like you've just chewed a hot chilli after spraying.
Expensive, Non refundable after opening, Not suitable for everybody

Fantastic!!!
This product is amazing! Literally saved my marriage! Constantly fighting about funds with the wife, therefore something had to be done, tried everything, patches, lozenges, gum, electronic cigarettes, cold turkey, I tried numerous times, but until I found this product I didn't think it'd be possible to quit! It's fast, effective, and it works! And so much cheaper then cigarettes!
Only negatives would be, maybe it could be cheaper? And maybe different flavours?
Reliable, fast, effective!

Works temporarily.
I quit for a year on this stuff. But you tend to forget that while using this nicotine spray, you're still actually addicted to nicotine.
So after one year of being smoke free, I gave up the spray.
One month later, I was back on the cigarettes.
I want to quit again, but addiction to one substance in place of another isn't for me.
Temporarily effective.
Temporarily effective, expensive.

Never thought I'd give up!!!
What a fantastic invention!! Cannot believe that this actually works!! Highly recommend :)))
I've been a smoker since the age of 15 - not proud. Now at 42, I'm seriously a non- smoker!! Only use the spray about 3-5 times a day! Please give it a try - you won't be sorry you did!!!
Easy but I spray under my tongue and let settle before swallowing. Otherwise coughing fit.
Nothing. Makes me NOT want a cigarette :)))

Thank you! Thank you! Quitting was easy!
I can not rave about this enough and should probably contact them for kick-backs as I am recommending it (in that pushy way us ex-smokers have) to everyone I know.
Doesn't come with the best instructions, makes you nauseous on an empty stomach - but hey, Chemotherapy makes you more nauseous.
People complain about the taste and I have to say it tastes better than an ashtray so what is your problem? You go from stinking to having minty fresh breath.
Harsh the first time? So was Smoking!!
The taste, the fix, the speed, the effectiveness, Im not afraid of watching TV and seeing Cancer Ads!

It really works
After 22 years as a 25+ a day smoker and after trying patches, gum, hypnotherapy and even trying cold turkey a few times, nothing really worked (although I went nearly 12 months without a smoke on hypnotherapy first time). So I gave in and bought the spray as a double-pack for $38 from Chemist Warehouse - cheapest I could find anywhere. I figured "why not?". I read a LOT of reviews on Amazon and on this site before I purchased and I figured the negative reviews were mostly user error. So I learned to prime it properly first and I learned NOT to...Read more
inhale while you spray. The taste is not good, but after going outside and sniffing the hubby's ashtray it's actually not so bad by comparison. The smell of his smokes are disgusting to me now and the taste isn't so bad. I learned to spray onto my tongue and hold my tongue out for 15-20 seconds before swallowing. This cuts down the yuck feeling after a spray. But the cravings disappear immediately. 4 weeks now and can't imagine going back for a smoke at all. If you've tried everything else and failed, give this a shot. Just be sure to prime it properly first or the pure liquid shot burns like crazy and makes you cough for a few minutes! Use it right and it's fine. It's also HEAPS cheaper than buying smokes. Update 19th July 2016: I wrote my first review of the Nicorette QuickMist spray 3 years ago - back when I first gave up smoking. I gave the spray a 5-star review back then, and I"m giving it a 5-star review now. That first attempt I went for 4 months without even craving a cigarette, although I do admit becoming slightly addicted to the spray! Anyway, I ended up having a few too many drinks at a party and picked up a cigarette one night after 4 months and went straight back into a nasty pack a day habit. It took me about three months to psyche myself up to pick up another canister of the spray from Chemist Warehouse and try to kick the habit again. This time I've been smoke free for nearly 2 years. I've been Nicorette spray free now for 12 months. Yes, it took me 12 months of using the spray to stop thinking about smoking when I was stressed, upset, or at a party. It also took me some months to wean myself off of the spray, as it can become quite habit-forming for some people.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!
Don't rate it at all
This product looked so good on the adds and unread reviews on it all though it may work for others i personally don't like it, it burnt my tongue and throat it also was so incredibly strong tasting . It actually made me want to be sick .
I still felt like a smoke after using it .

Nicorette QuickMist has helped to stay off smoking!
I did experience hiccups at first! But now i have found a trick to never get a hiccup - SPRAY THE INSIDE OF EITHER CHEEK AND DON'T INHALE WHILST SPRAYING. I hope that this may help someone out there with this method that may work for you as it did for me!
This stuff was a lifesaver on my plane journey from Sydney to Japan!!!
Nicotine aid!
Hiccups at first - but found a method to avoid them!

5 weeks smoke free for me
It took me 24 hours to get used to the taste and burnish feeling. I ended up having to spray it on my tongue and kind of leave my tongue out of my mouth for 30 seconds, then i was fine. I had to do this for 24 hours and then i was used to it.
I am tickled pink at my own success using the spray.
a fast hit of nicotine
very expensive

Quick Mist is just that ...instant!
I used pre Quit patches for 2 weeks ...then patches for 4 weeks and Quickmist as an emergency back-up. They don't give me heartburn or hiccups like other products (don't inhale when you spray). I've only used as a back up and not been tempted to run out and buy cigarettes. I'm thinking about giving up patches and just using spray as week 8 now and I really want to wean myself off nicotine. I wish I knew how many sprays equals a full strength cigarette.
Quick fix ...no heartburn, easy to use.

Not a fan
The product is okay, but the spray gives a burning sensation similar to extra-hot chili peppers in your mouth or on your lips. My husband can't use it because it gives him hiccups every time he uses it! I still keep it in my handbag for absolute desperation moments but prefer the mini lozenges instead - unfortunately I'm allergic to the patches.
Portable
Burning sensation, hiccups

Questions & Answers
Worriedasked
I am addicted to Nicorette mist spray since quitting in 2013, i can not go any were with out it, going away in i have to carry spares...originally it lasted 4 odd days but lately i can not get past 3 so i wonder if the company making it for J+J are putting the full amount in the spay as its sealed away for viewing, the expensive kit it not child proof as i found 2.. 3 year old working it out, drop the price as i note the biggest chemist shop selling it from say $49 to $56 (3 pack) and less often have now due to the Corona virus and people sitting at home using more of it have now put it up to $69.. I feel the demand for it will make twice the profit and i thought it was illegal to profiter or take advantage of the public during a pandemic.. Others now home 24/7 and bored must feel the same, cut the profit and help, why has no other manufacturer tried to market the spray and what other spray etc What flavour is close to freshmint to help cut down on the nicorette, my Dentist can not understand why my teeth are needing fillings from more regular decay...
Shocked by contracting lung cancer now (6 months) i need something for my anxiety not pills but find the cost of mist at $69 is just 2 much to afford. They advertise vitamins at 50% off but never the profit maker, its advertised on TV to stop smoking but has no discount of price..Ebay are advertising 2x2 packs del for $70 and that's 4 sprays not 3 ?????? of course Woolies, Coles and small chemists are selling at the same price all year round and ridiculous as they possible sell 2-10 packs a month..

Yes, in my experience it does register. However it’s not enough to be over the limit.

Well I bought this spray 7 days ago, and have not smoked since. I've tried the gum and lozenges many times, and found they done nothing to stop my urges to smoke. I would take the gum/ lozenges for mo... Read more
st of the day, then end up buying a pack of smokes at night. I definitely recommend the spray to anybody wanting to stop smoking. A word of advice though, don't swallow your saliva after you've sprayed, as you (well I did) will get heartburn. Just have a spray, spit it out after 30 seconds, then have a drink of water. Good luck!!!
