Nicotine pouches have recently become a popular alternative to traditional tobacco products. Many people are turning to this innovative option. Velo pouches offer a convenient way to consume nicotine, providing a discreet and smooth experience. If you are new to these products, this guide will cover everything you need to know about using Velo nicotine pouches correctly. 

What are nicotine pouches? 

Nicotine pouches are small, white pouches containing nicotine, flavors, and other ingredients but are free from tobacco. Unlike traditional tobacco products, there is no combustion. This makes them a better alternative to smoking*.  

Why Nicotine Pouches? 

Before we go into how to use nicotine pouches, let's look at the convenience of using nicotine pouches: 

1. Quiet use: Nicotine pouches are small and can be used discreetly without producing noise, smoke, or ash. 

2. No-Smoke**: Unlike traditional tobacco products, these pouches are tobacco-free, reducing the inconvenience associated with tobacco products. 

3. Flexibility: They are easy to carry and can be used on the go, even in places where smoking is prohibited. 

They are easy to use and free consumers from the hassle of smoke and ash. 

How to Use Nicotine Pouches: Step-by-Step 

Choosing the Right Product, Flavor, and Strength 

Nicotine pouches come in a variety of flavors like mint and berry, each offering a different experience. Nicotine strengths range from lower levels (around 6mg-10mg) to higher levels (up to 8mg or more). If you are new to nicotine pouches, it is advisable to start with a lower strength to get used to it overtime. Opening the Box and Handling the Pouch 

Nicotine pouches usually come in round-shaped boxes. To access the pouches, open the box by pressing or twisting the lid, depending on its design. Using clean, dry hands, select one pouch from the box. Avoid handling the pouch too much to prevent transferring any moisture or contamination. 

Placing the Pouch in Your Mouth – Proper Position 

Place the pouch between your gums and upper lip. How you position the nicotine pouch can affect nicotine absorption and your overall experience. Most users find the upper gum area, just above the teeth, to be the most comfortable spot. Once placed, adjust the pouch if necessary. It should fit snugly but not too tightly. If you feel discomfort, you may need to reposition the pouch or choose a different strength. 

Duration and Monitoring Effects 

Each pouch is designed to deliver nicotine for about 20 to 30 minutes. During this time, nicotine is absorbed, and you may feel a slight tingling sensation or a rush of nicotine, especially if you are new to nicotine products. Use pouches sparingly, as they can have minor side effects. If you experience side effects like dizziness or nausea, remove the pouch and discontinue use. 

Removing the Pouch – Hygiene and Proper Disposal 

After use, carefully remove the nicotine pouch from your mouth. Dispose it of in the trash, preferably in a designated bin for used nicotine products. Avoid discarding it in public places to prevent environmental contamination. Rinse your mouth with water and wash your hands thoroughly to remove any nicotine residue. 

Understand the Possible Side Effects 

Nicotine pouches are generally safe when used as directed, but some new users may experience common side effects: 

• Nausea: Overuse of high-strength nicotine pouches can cause nausea. If this occurs, remove the pouch and drink water. 
• Headache: Nicotine can sometimes cause headaches, especially if you are not accustomed to it. 
• Dry mouth: In some cases, nicotine can cause dry mouth. 

Always remember, proper use means enjoying the desired flavor in the right way. 

Proper Storage of Nicotine Pouches 

To maintain the quality of your nicotine pouches, store them in a cool, dry place. Ensure the package is tightly closed when not in use to prevent moisture from affecting the pouches. Excessive heat or humidity can cause them to deteriorate. Avoid leaving them in hot environments, such as a car or near a refrigerator. 

Velo Flavors 

Velo offers a wide range of flavors to suit different tastes, including mint, raspberry, and strawberry. Each flavor is designed to provide a unique experience. In the UAE, Velo nicotine pouches are available in nicotine strengths ranging from 6mg to 10mg. If you are new to Velo, it's advisable to start with a lower strength to gauge your tolerance. 

Tips for Using Velo Nicotine Pouches 

As with any nicotine product, using Velo nicotine pouches safely and responsibly is crucial. Here are some things to keep in mind: 

4. Start Slow: If you're new to Velo pouches, start with a lower nicotine strength and limit your initial use to one pouch per day. Gradually increase usage if needed.
