What’s the difference between NRT and Zyn?Updated 5 months ago

Oral nicotine pouches like Zyn are not approved by the FDA for any use, including as a tool for quitting nicotine, while NRT is approved and regulated by the FDA. Decades of research, as well as a 2020 report from the Surgeon General, confirm that NRT is safe to use (even long-term) and is an effective way to quit tobacco products for good. Further, Zyn delivers nicotine faster and in higher strength options than NRT, making it more addictive. In contrast, NRT’s slow-release mechanism is what helps keep its addictive potential low, especially compared to nicotine pouches.
