Step-By-Step Instructions
Each Step in More Detail
Here's what to consider when using a ZYN nicotine pouch.
1. Open the Can
Open the can and remove one pouch.
Packaging differs slightly between product lines. ZYN cans feature a twist-and-lock lid, while ZYN Ultra uses a standard snap lid. Always follow the opening instructions printed on the can.
2. Place the Pouch
Place one pouch between your upper lip and gum. Many adult nicotine users position the pouch slightly to one side so it stays in place.
Do not chew, suck, or swallow the pouch.
3. Use the Pouch
Once the pouch is in place, ZYN pouches can be used for up to 60 minutes. Always follow the instructions on the product packaging and remove the pouch sooner if it feels uncomfortable.
4. Remove the Pouch
When you are finished, remove the pouch and throw it away in the trash. If you are using ZYN Ultra, the can comes with a built-in waste compartment until a trash can is nearby.
Do not flush nicotine pouches or leave used pouches on the ground.
5. Close the Can
Close the lid securely after removing a pouch.
For standard ZYN products, twist the lid until the lock is engaged. If you're using ZYN Ultra, press the snap lid firmly closed after use.
Pouch Placement
ZYN nicotine pouches are typically placed between the upper lip and gum.
Most adult nicotine users position the pouch slightly to one side so it remains in place during use. If you use nicotine pouches regularly, you may prefer to alternate sides rather than placing every pouch in the same location.
Do not place a pouch under your tongue, chew it, or swallow it.
