How to Use ZYN Nicotine Pouches: Step-by-Step
Learning how to use ZYN nicotine pouches is straightforward – just follow these four simple steps.
Step 1: Choose Your ZYN Pouch
Start by selecting a ZYN pouch suited to your preference. ZYN offers different strengths (from 1.5 mg to 13.5 mg per pouch) and a variety of flavours like Cool Mint and Citrus. Adult users who are new to nicotine pouches may consider starting with lower strength options.
Step 2: Place the Pouch Under Your Lip
Position the pouch discreetly under your upper lip. It sits comfortably, gradually releasing nicotine without the need to chew or spit.
Step 3: Use and Enjoy ZYN
Allow the pouch to release nicotine gradually. Most users keep it in place for about 20–60 minutes. Keep the pouch in the same place if you wish to ensure a consistent nicotine release.
Step 4: Dispose of the Pouch Properly
After use, responsibly discard the pouch in a bin — never flush it. For convenience on-the-go, use the built-in waste compartment in the lid of your ZYN can.
