How to use Nicotine pouches

Nicotine pouches, Snus, Swedish snuff or whatever name you use for it, is a tobacco free product that’s easy to use and less messy than traditional snuff or dipping tobacco. It comes in a variety of flavors and sizes and is good for both the casual nicotine user and smokers hoping to cut back. 100% Tobacco free.

Nicotine pouches comes in a few different varieties of strength, flavor and size. It’s probably best to start with a lower strength variety unless you’ve already got a considerable nicotine tolerance from other nicotine products.

  • Strength labels are often from 1-4 , 1-5 or 1-6 rated. The nicotine content on the different strengths can vary from brand to brand. We recommend checking the product information to determine the strength. A normal strength is 6mg nicotine per pouch. Anything lower than that is often referred as a lighter pouch. Anything over 6mg is often referred as strong. Be aware that this is not always the case and it can vary from brand to brand.
  • Nicotine pouches, or snus as it is also called, comes in three different sizes: Mini, Slim (most common) and Large.
  • Several brands come in lots of flavors, including mint, fruit, cola, coffee natural flavors. They’re known for long-lasting flavors, so pick something you’ll like and know that it won’t be particularly subtle.
  • 98% put the snus under the upper lip but some few people also use the lower lip.

Take a pouch out of the box. When you buy a can of Snus, it will contain several small pouches of the snuff. Remove one for your use.

  • Unlike regular snuff, you don’t have to shake the tin to “pack” the snuff or clump it. If you prefer, you can distribute the tobacco somewhat in the individual pouch with your fingers by squeezing the pouch a few times. Be gentle and don’t tear the packet.

Insert the packet between your lip and gums. Most users select to put the packet under their top lip on one side, but place it wherever it feels comfortable.

  • Some users will dry under the lip area for less saliva during use. If you want to, use your sleeve or a napkin to dry your under-upper lip area.
  • Some users with smaller mouths find it more comfortable to fold the packet in half (lengthwise or short wise) before packing it into their lip. Experiment some to fit it in comfortable for your mouth.

Don’t spit. Unlike to dip or snuff, using moist snuff och chewing tobacco, it’s not necessary to spit, making it attractive to some users because it’s less messy and makes it unnecessary to carry around an empty water bottle or mud-cup with you. Swallow normally and keep the Snus in your mouth as long as you enjoy the taste and buzz. Most users keep a pouch in for 20 minutes to an hour.

  • You should start to notice the familiar nicotine head buzz soon. If you’re an inexperienced nicotine user, you may start to feel a strong head-rush and some nausea, or even vomiting. This is a normal nicotine response. Spit out the packet if it starts nauseating you.
  • Always dispose of used snus in a trash can. Don’t litter by spitting it out elsewhere.

Store your nicotine pouches in a cool and dry area. It’s common to keep cans in the refrigerator to keep the taste and quality fresh. It’ll last longer that way, and is commonly kept refrigerated in stores. Nicotine pouches keep their quality for at least 14 weeks when kept refrigerated.
