NiQuitin Clear Step 1 — 21mg Nicotine Patch 7 Pack
NiQuitin Clear Step 1 is a 24-hour nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) patch for people who are ready to stop smoking. Designed for Step 1 of the NiQuitin 3-step programme, the 21mg patch is intended for those who smoke more than 10 cigarettes per day. It uses NiQuitin's Smart Control technology to deliver a rapid initial release of nicotine when first applied, followed by a controlled, steady flow of therapeutic nicotine throughout the day and night to prevent cravings and withdrawal symptoms before they start.
Clinical studies show that NiQuitin patches double your chances of successfully stopping smoking compared to trying without NRT support.
How NiQuitin Clear Patches Work
Nicotine patches deliver nicotine steadily through the skin into the bloodstream. This steady nicotine supply prevents the sharp dips between cigarettes that trigger cravings. NiQuitin's Smart Control technology is designed to mimic the initial surge of nicotine you would normally get from a cigarette when you first apply the patch — reducing the urge to smoke from the moment you put it on.
Unlike 16-hour patches, NiQuitin Clear is a 24-hour patch — worn day and night. This is particularly beneficial for people who experience strong cravings first thing in the morning upon waking, as nicotine continues to be delivered overnight.
NiQuitin 3-Step Programme
- Step 1 (Weeks 1–6): NiQuitin 21mg — for those who smoke more than 10 cigarettes per day
- Step 2 (Weeks 7–8): NiQuitin 14mg — step down as dependence reduces
- Step 3 (Weeks 9–10): NiQuitin 7mg — final step before becoming nicotine-free
The 7-pack provides one week's supply — ideal for starting the programme or for those who prefer shorter purchase intervals. The full Step 1 course of 6 weeks requires 6 packs.
Key Features
- 21mg nicotine dose — Step 1 for smokers of more than 10 cigarettes per day
- 24-hour wear time — day and night coverage
- NiQuitin Smart Control technology — rapid initial nicotine release
- Clear, discreet design — minimal visibility on skin
- 7-pack — one week's supply
- Clinically proven to double quit success rates
How to Use
Apply one patch each day to clean, dry, hairless skin on the upper body or upper arm. Press firmly for 10–20 seconds. Rotate the site daily to avoid skin irritation. The patch is worn for 24 hours and replaced the following morning. Do not cut the patch.
Pharmacy medicine. Read the patient information leaflet before use. Not suitable for non-smokers or children. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, speak with your GP or pharmacist before use. Those with heart conditions should consult their doctor before starting NRT.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between NiQuitin and Nicorette patches?
Both NiQuitin and Nicorette are clinically proven nicotine replacement therapy patch brands, and both significantly increase the chance of quitting successfully. The key differences are: NiQuitin uses a 24-hour patch worn day and night, while Nicorette Invisi is a 16-hour patch removed at bedtime. NiQuitin's Smart Control technology aims to deliver a more rapid initial nicotine release on application. The choice between them often comes down to personal preference — some people prefer 24-hour coverage (particularly those with strong morning cravings), while others prefer removing the patch at bedtime. Both are available from Chemco Pharmacy — our pharmacists can advise on the right choice for your smoking patterns.
How many cigarettes a day is the 21mg Step 1 patch for?
The NiQuitin 21mg Step 1 patch is designed for people who smoke more than 10 cigarettes per day. If you smoke 10 or fewer cigarettes per day, you may be able to start at Step 2 (14mg) — speak with your Chemco pharmacist for guidance based on your specific level of dependence.
Can I use NiQuitin patches with other NRT products?
Yes — combination NRT is recommended for many smokers, particularly heavier smokers. Using a background patch alongside a fast-acting product such as Nicorette QuickMist (for sudden breakthrough cravings) gives significantly better quit rates than using a patch alone. This approach is supported by HSE QUIT guidelines. Speak with your Chemco pharmacist about whether combination NRT is appropriate for you.
Is NiQuitin available in Ireland without a prescription?
Yes. NiQuitin Clear Step 1 21mg patches are available as a pharmacy medicine from Chemco Pharmacy without a prescription.
