Habitrol

Nicorette is a branded over-the-counter palliative treatment which is used to ameliorate the withdrawal effects involved in quitting smoking. Originally available as a patch for topical application, it was later made available as a chewing gum (composed of nicotine polacrilex) and even an inhaler. All these products contain nicotine as the active ingredient and work by delivering this into the bloodstream.

Alternative brand names include Prostep®, Habitrol® Nicotrol®, and Nicoderm®.

Novartis - Supplier News - FDA approval - Brief Article
From Drug Store News, 8/12/02

Novartis in July secured approval from the Food and Drug Administration to change its retailer-branded smoking cessation transdermal patch offering. Instead of merchandising Novartis three-step nicotine-replacement system separately, the company soon will revise its labeling and package the Habitrol Take Control quit system in a single box. Novartis officials could not be reached to provide additional details.
