Nicotine Delivery and Subjective Effects of 4 mg Nicotine Polacrilex Chewing Gum Compared With Swedish Portion Snus
Fifteen healthy smokers are given single doses of General Onyx 1 g portion snus and General White 1g portion snus, respectively, and one piece of Nicorette 4 mg chewing gum. Serial blood samples are drawn before (0), 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, 30, 45, 60 minutes, 1.5, 2, 4, 6 and 8 hours after administration for determination of nicotine. Mean + SD extracted dose of nicotine from each preparation will be estimated. The percentage extracted of the nicotine content will be calculated. Cmax and Tmax will be estimated. A comparison to Nicorette 4 mg chewing gum will be made. The dose absorbed into the systemic blood circulation (AUC) in relation to the dose following the 4 mg Nicorette chewing gum will be calculated. Self-reports of subjective effects will be obtained up to 30 minutes after the test product is administered using a 100 mm visual analogue scale (VAS) anchored with "not at all" to "extremely". Study hypothesis is that Cmax and AUC of Nicorette 4 mg chewing gum and Swedish snus are similar.
