的global nicotine gum market was estimated at USD 1.30 billion in 2022 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.6% from 2023 to 2030. The demand for nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) products, including nicotine gum, has been increasing globally in recent years as more people are opting for methods to quit smoking and reduce their exposure to the harmful chemicals found in tobacco smoke. Some of the latest trends in the global NRT market include the development of more convenient and effective NRT products, such as long-lasting gums, and the growing popularity of flavored options. In addition, there has been an increase in the number of people using NRT products to quit smoking, as well as a rise in the number of healthcare professionals recommending NRT products to their patients.
的COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the nicotine gum market. The lockdowns and restrictions imposed during the pandemic caused a significant increase in stress and anxiety levels among people, leading to a rise in smoking and nicotine use. As a result, the demand for nicotine gum and other nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) products increased as people opted for ways to quit smoking or manage their nicotine cravings.
的pandemic caused disruptions to supply chains, resulting in temporary shortages of some NRT products, including nicotine gum. This led to price hikes and difficulties in obtaining certain products, which created challenges for smokers who were trying to quit.
Moreover, the growing recognition of nicotine replacement therapy, including nicotine gum, as a safe and effective way to quit smoking has led to increased demand for these products. In addition, manufacturers are also investing in marketing & promoting nicotine and in R&D to create new and improved nicotine gum products. This includes the development of products with new flavors, enhanced efficacy, and more convenient delivery systems, which contribute to market expansion. Healthcare providers are also increasingly recommending and prescribing nicotine replacement therapy, including nicotine gum, to quit smoking.
Governments around the world have also recognized the role that NRT can play in helping people quit smoking and have taken steps to support its use. Many countries have included NRT products, such as nicotine gum, as part of their smoking cessation programs and have provided funding for research. For instance, Japan offers smoking cessation drugs & therapy which is available to all and is reimbursable under the National Health Insurance. In addition, some governments have implemented regulations to make NRT products more widely available and accessible to those who need them. The FDA is a regulatory authority in the U.S. that governs approval for the marketing of new drugs for human use under the United States Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act 1938.
的2mg segment dominated the market and accounted for the largest revenue share of 55.9% in 2022. People consume 2mg of nicotine gums as a form of nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) to help them quit smoking or to reduce their cigarette consumption. There is a growing awareness of the health risks associated with smoking, which has led to an increase in the number of people looking for ways to quit or reduce their smoking.
4毫克段的复合年增长率预计将增长6.0% during the forecast period. People who consume 4mg of nicotine gum are typically heavy smokers, meaning they smoke 25 or more cigarettes per day. The higher dose of nicotine in the 4mg gum is intended to help smokers manage their nicotine cravings and withdrawal symptoms more effectively, as heavy smokers typically require a higher dose of nicotine to achieve relief.
的pharmacies segment dominated the market and accounted for the largest revenue share of 38.4% in 2022. People buy nicotine gum from pharmacies for the medical advice and support available, the convenience of purchasing it along with other health-related products, the availability of the product, the quality of the product, and the confidentiality it offers.

的online distribution channel segment is estimated to grow at a CAGR of about 6.9% during the forecast period. This segment has witnessed immense popularity over the past few years. The shift in consumer preference toward online channels is due to the convenience that the channel provides, such as high discounts, availability of a diverse range of products on a single platform, easy payment methods, on-door delivery, and others. Additionally, online retailers often carry a large variety of nicotine gums with different flavors, strengths, and brands, compared to traditional brick-and-mortar stores.
