The nicotine gum market has been growing steadily on account of the rising popularity of smoking cessation therapy. Smoking and nicotine addiction has become a significant cause of cancer incidences across the globe which has prompted consumers to take up smoking cessation therapy.

Nicotine gum also helps to address the problem of nicotine withdrawal symptoms by delivering nicotine into the bloodstream via the tissues of the mouth. Increase in awareness about the health hazards associated with tobacco consumption coupled with growing awareness about smoking cessation therapies has resulted in an elevated demand for nicotine gums.
The manufacturers of nicotine gums are coming up with novel flavors to tap the consumer market which is further boosting the market growth. Developments of newer varieties of nicotine gums which are significantly effective in increasing the success rate of smoking abstinence by providing much more speedy therapeutic effects have also supported the growth of the market. Nicotine gums are available over the counter and at an affordable price which further drives the market growth. Regardless of its benefits, nicotine gums are associated with side effects such as increased heart rate, increased blood pressure, nausea, indigestion, dental pain, heart burn, hiccups, oral irritation, etc., which is likely to impede the market growth. The market growth might also be hindered by concerns of regulatory bodies such as FDA about the misuse or abuse of nicotine gums, especially by adolescents. Substitutes and alternative therapies might also threaten the market growth.
