These patches are the first step in a 3 step programme designed to help you stop smoking. Each step has patches that deliver different levels of therapeutic nicotine to your body. If you smoke 10 cigarettes a day or more, then start with these patches and gradually move to step 2 and then step 3. If you smoke less than 10 cigarettes a day then you should start with step 2 patches.
