NICOTINE STRENGTH GUIDE

Just encountered nicotine pouches for the first time? You might have questions about the nicotine inside, like, ‘What is nicotine in a pouch?’ and ‘How do nicotine strengths work?’. You’re in the right place! Learn about nicotine strengths and how they translate into VELO nicotine pouches here.

Nicotine is a chemical compound that comes from the leaves of the tobacco plant. It’s also a stimulant and a nitrogen-containing alkaloid.

These days, nicotine is also available in products that don’t contain tobacco, like VELO nicotine pouches. Our pouches contain a pharmaceutical-grade nicotine polymer that absorbs into the bloodstream – pop, tuck, feel.

Nicotine strength means just that; the strength of nicotine in a product. In VELO terms, nicotine strength is the nicotine concentration inside each pouch. Our nicotine pouches come in seven strengths, ranging from 4mg to 17mg.

Nicotine in a VELO pouch? Weird. Instant enjoyment anywhere? Wonderful.

When choosing VELO pouches, look for the nicotine strength on the packaging. We use a dot system to mark how much nicotine is inside, but you can also find the number printed on each can. Read our guide to nicotine to learn more about the VELO dot system and translate dots into nicotine strengths. 

When you’ve found the most suitable nicotine strength for you and got your hands on VELO nicotine pouches, you might have questions about how to use them and keep them fresh.

Good news! You can find everything you need in our VELO guide to nicotine pouches, including how they’re made, how to use them and what to expect. Or read our maintenance guide to learn how to look after your nicotine pouches for the freshest experience.

If you’re new to using nicotine pouches, you might want to start with a lower nicotine strength for a shorter period to get used to the tingle. You can always transition to a higher nicotine strength over time and build up to tucking your pouches for a maximum of 30 minutes.

They might taste good, but be mindful of using too many nicotine pouches in quick succession. Try to stick to your typical nicotine intake.

Only you know the right nicotine strength for your experience. Consider how much nicotine you usually intake (whether from smoking, vaping or something else) when buying VELO pouches. Try to match up with what you’re used to.

Take good care of your VELO pouches, storing them inside their original packaging out of direct sunlight, heat and away from moisture, for the freshest experience every time.

We want your VELO experience to be as safe and straightforward as possible. It’s important to remember a few safety precautions to get the most out of your pouches:

•  Keep VELO pouches away from children

•  Follow the instructions on the package

•  Dispose of each VELO pouch after 30 minutes of use

•  Don’t swallow VELO pouches

•  Check you aren’t allergic to any ingredients

•  Store VELO pouches in their original packaging

•  Reduce nicotine strength if VELO pouches make you feel unwell
