Description
Rugby Step 1 Clear Nicotine Transdermal System provides 21mg of nicotine over 24 hours, representing the highest strength in the three-step smoking cessation program. This step is designed for heavy smokers who consume more than 10 cigarettes per day and are beginning their quit journey. The clear, discreet patches deliver consistent nicotine levels to help manage severe withdrawal symptoms and intense cravings during the most challenging phase of quitting. Rugby Laboratories’ commitment to affordable healthcare extends to their smoking cessation products, offering the same quality as leading brands at a fraction of the cost. The transdermal delivery system ensures steady nicotine absorption, helping to prevent the peaks and valleys associated with smoking. This step typically lasts 6 weeks before transitioning to Step 2 (14mg). The patches are waterproof and designed to stay in place during normal daily activities, including showering and light exercise. Successfully completing Step 1 significantly increases your chances of long-term smoking cessation success.
Suggested Use
Apply one patch daily to clean, dry, hairless skin on upper body or upper outer arm. Rotate application sites to prevent skin irritation. Wear for 24 hours, remove, and immediately apply new patch to different location. Use for 6 weeks before stepping down to 14mg patches.
