About Nicotine Pouches
Nicotine pouches are another tobacco alternative, similar to e-cigarettes. They are small pouches that slip between your bottom lip and gum to sate nicotine cravings - and are completely tobacco-free. Nic pouches do not stain your teeth or cause bad breath and are a discreet way to ingest nicotine in situations where e-cigarettes may not be an option. There are no accessories or parts required; choose a flavour and strength, and you're ready to get started.
Nicotine pouches contain a handful of necessary ingredients, typically nicotine salt, plant-based fillers, PH stabilisers and flavourings.
Nicotine salt is a form of nicotine found naturally in the tobacco leaf. Many e-liquids, known as nic salt e-liquids, also use this nicotine formula. The filler is what bulks out the pouch and is made from only food-grade ingredients, often consisting of plant fibres such as bamboo or wheat. The exact ingredients vary from brand to brand; see individual packs for details.
How are Nicotine Pouches used?
Nicotine pouches are extremely easy to use; merely pop one out of the pack and place it between your lip and gum/teeth. Most manufacturers recommend doing so behind your top lip as this tends to be more comfortable, but the pouches can be used behind your bottom lip as well. You can use your tongue to position the pouch more comfortably.
You can remove the pouch when you'd like to. Most will keep them in place for between 15-60 minutes. Once you remove your pouch, it can be thrown away as general waste or kept in the separate compartment of your case for later disposal.

Advantages of using Nicotine Pouches
Nicotine pouches offer a convenient way to intake nicotine when on the go, especially when in areas where other alternatives aren't allowed. You can use your nicotine pouches in restaurants and cinemas, on public transport and aeroplanes, or even at the office. The pouches don't create any odour, smoke or vapour and can be discreetly placed into your mouth when needed.
In addition to their versatility, nicotine pouches are also appreciated for their clean and user-friendly format. Since they don’t involve combustion, there’s no risk of second-hand smoke, ash, or lingering smells on clothing and surroundings, making them a more socially acceptable option in many situations. Their compact packaging makes them easy to carry in a pocket or bag, allowing for effortless access whenever cravings strike. Moreover, they come in various flavours and nicotine strengths, giving users more control over their experience and helping some manage or gradually reduce their nicotine intake. For individuals looking for a less invasive, more subtle nicotine option, pouches provide a modern alternative that fits seamlessly into a busy lifestyle.

Frequently Asked Questions about Nicotine Pouches
On average, most users report consuming roughly half a can of nicotine pouches daily - that's around 10-12 pouches in total. Therefore, it's wise not to intake more than this amount as a general rule of thumb.
Depending on the brand of nic pouches you've purchased and the nicotine strength chosen, the effects tend to last anywhere from 30-60 minutes.
Although there's nothing restricting users from reusing a nic pouch, we advise against this. Firstly, you wouldn’t be getting the same effects compared to a brand-new pouch, and secondly, it's considered to be fairly unhygienic to do so.
Most nicotine pouches do not contain tobacco leaves but contain nicotine extracted from the tobacco plant. Some brands may include small amounts of other tobacco plant parts.
Nicotine pouches are often allowed in places where smoking and vaping are restricted since they don’t produce smoke or vapor. However, policies may vary, so it's best to check local rules.
Nicotine pouches are a smoke-free, vapour-free alternative to smoking and vaping. They're perfect for use in places where smoking or vaping isn’t allowed, such as public transport, offices, pubs, or cinemas. To use one, simply place it between your upper lip and gum. The pouch gradually releases nicotine to help curb cravings.
How to Use a Nicotine Pouch:
1. Place the pouch between your gum and upper lip
2. Allow it to release nicotine gradually
3. Keep it in place as it works
4. Dispose of it properly after use
You must be at least 18 years old to purchase nicotine pouches. Like all nicotine products, they’re strictly age-restricted. At ETUK use a robust age verification process to prevent underage purchases. These pouches are intended for adult smokers looking to reduce or quit traditional cigarettes.
If you’re new to nicotine pouches, it’s best to start with a lower strength, such as 3mg or 6mg. Starting too strong can cause discomfort. A 6mg pouch is a popular choice for beginners and allows you to ease into using them without overwhelming effects.
A tingling sensation is completely normal—it usually happens in the first few minutes after placing the pouch. It’s a sign that nicotine is being released and absorbed. If the sensation feels too intense, try switching to a lower strength pouch.
The recommended duration varies by brand, but most pouches can be used for 30 to 60 minutes. Always check the manufacturer's guidelines for the best results and experience.
Flavour is a personal preference, but mint and fruit are among the most popular. If you're just starting out, mint offers a refreshing, clean feel, while fruit options are ideal for those who prefer something sweet and light.
Yes, but they last quite a while. Sealed pouches typically have a shelf life of about a year. Once opened, it’s best to use the pouches within two weeks to ensure freshness and effectiveness. They contain food-grade preservatives to maintain their quality.
