A parallel, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomised pharmacodynamic study conducted in solus, regular vapers has shown that the mouth spray is effective in relieving momentary urges to vape (cravings) following ad lib use of the spray over 11 hours. A significantly higher proportion of subjects (p<0.001) in the mouth spray group (82.6%) had a maximum reduction of at least 50% vs. baseline in momentary urges-to-vape scores during the two hours follow-up compared to the placebo group (55.1%). Less nicotine is released from a puff on an inhalator than a drag on a cigarette, so it may be necessary to inhale more often than when smoking. Care should be taken not to spray the eyes. If you get spray in your eyes rinse thoroughly with water. Do not inhale whilst spraying to avoid getting spray down your throat.
