I called NEW YORK STATE QUITS and they sent the first two weeks of patches. I set a date (sort of - I knew that I wanted to quit before I was 50, just turned 49 and bells went off - to top it off my 4 year old grandson said nana's breath stinks ((I smoked OUTSIDE, brushed by teeth, mouthwash and gum....)). That was the end of my pleasure smoking and I have NEVER looked back.) My daughter (deaf, single mother of that four year old child) informed me that she was pregnant again. My first thought was to smoke and give up, my second thought was what my grandson had said and my third thought was WHY PUNISH MYSELF!! (all in 5 seconds lol). If you are ready, this is a WONDERFUL tool. I am on the 7th week now and have missed the patch from time to time and it doesn't bother me at all. I have tried acupuncture, cold turkey, patches - others and immediately went back to smoking. Oh, by the way, my husband and I quit together and we're both still alive lolololol.. It has to be your time to quit and I think it's easier. I had a goal and this is the tool that worked and changed my life. WHOOOOOO, I forgot to explain WHY I purchased here. OK, so NYS offers the first two weeks and then you have to see your own dr. I don't have a dr - rarely sick and when I am, I see the ER. So, when things were going great with the patch and I called back to NYS QUITS, they stated that I needed to see my own dr., I called around and would need to go through full exam, couldn't be seen for a while, blah blah. I called the ER, couldn't do it. I looked on Ebay and was able to purchase the ENTIRE regimen for me and my husband for $96. QUICK, EASY and very pleased.Read full review

Have to use tape to keep them on. Their version of glue is about worthless. Once taped on seemed to work as well as all the others out there, but that peeling off and adding tape is a PIA and just not worth the trouble and extra glue stuck to your skin.

It helps to clean the area with alcohol, apply the patch, hit it with a blow dryer for about 8-10 seconds and then press hard! The advantage of this brand is the flexibility and no residue when you take it off. Equal in all other aspects, including the vivid dreams.

Okay, to all the people who have trouble with it staying on, it's a good idea to press it in for at least 15 seconds. I've never had a problem with it falling off. I use the patches to curb my smoking for extended times when I can't smoke. They work just fine and are much cheaper than the name brand. I've used both and I cannot see any difference at all. In fact, I get much less of that itchy feeling with this particular brand.

Very effective if you have the desire to quit. This brand stays on and doesn't come off easily. I feel so much better without the cigarettes. It is worth quitting.

I was super excited to try these patches after reading the reviews but ended up highly dissatisfied! They did nothing to curb my smoking and I didn't even get that "Queasy" feeling from smoking with the patch on (which you are not supposed to do). It did however irritate my skin where the patches were placed which I expected. Unfortunately, I will not purchase this brand again after these are used up.

These patches help the nicotine craving. The downside is the patches don't stay on they fall off. What Had to do is put surgical tape to hold the patches on. I called the manufacture they were a joke. If you are serious about quitting they do help and the price is right. Good Luck

These adhere well but don't leave an awful sticky residue like some other patches. They also conform to the arm better and aren't shiny. Price is great!

I've tried both the Rugby and Nicoderm CQ, and the Rugby stays on longer and irritates my skin less! I'm positive I can quit using these!
