Random Nicotine Delivery
One 0 mg or 4 mg nicotine film every 3-4 hours for a total of four films per day (not to exceed three non-consecutive 4 mg films in one day) for 6 weeks. Nicotine Film: Three doses of nicotine films will be used in this project: 0 mg, 2 mg, and 4 mg. The active pharmaceutical ingredient in the nicotine film product is nicotine polacrilex (20%, USP). The film has a muco-adhesive property and allows nicotine to be absorbed through the oral mucosa. After placement in the oral cavity, the nicotine film dissolves in less than five minutes. The film is in the form of 1 inch x 1 inch square and weighs about 100 mg. Nicotine films are not available in the United States in a non-investigational setting.
Steady State Nicotine Delivery
One 2 mg nicotine film every 3-4 hours for a total of four films per day for 6 weeks. Nicotine Film: Three doses of nicotine films will be used in this project: 0 mg, 2 mg, and 4 mg. The active pharmaceutical ingredient in the nicotine film product is nicotine polacrilex (20%, USP). The film has a muco-adhesive property and allows nicotine to be absorbed through the oral mucosa. After placement in the oral cavity, the nicotine film dissolves in less than five minutes. The film is in the form of 1 inch x 1 inch square and weighs about 100 mg. Nicotine films are not available in the United States in a non-investigational setting.
Placebo Control
One 0 mg nicotine film every 3-4 hours for a total of four films per day for 6 weeks. Nicotine Film: Three doses of nicotine films will be used in this project: 0 mg, 2 mg, and 4 mg.
