Nicotine Pouch Strengths

Nicotine Pouch Strengths FAQs

• What does “mg/g” vs “mg per pouch” mean?

  mg/g – milligrams of nicotine per gram of pouch material; to calculate nicotine per pouch, multiply by the pouch’s weight.

  mg/pouch – total nicotine in each pouch; no calculation needed.

• How do I calculate nicotine per pouch if only mg/g is listed?

  Here's how to quickly work out nicotine strength in a pouch:

  If the label says mg per pouch, that’s the exact amount of nicotine in each pouch.

  If the label says mg per gram (mg/g), multiply that number by the pouch’s weight in grams.

  Nicotine (mg/g) × Pouch weight (g) = mg/pouch
  

  Example:

  If it says 15mg/g and the pouch weighs 0.7g:

  15mg/g × 0.7g = 10.5mg per pouch

  That’s it! Just multiply mg/g by the pouch weight to get the nicotine per pouch.

• Which strength should I start with?

  Beginners: Up to 6 mg/pouch (Low).

  Moderate users: 7mg–11 mg (Medium).

  Advanced users: 12mg–20 mg (High).

  Love the burn users: Over 20 mg (Strong).

  Love the burn users: Over 40 mg (Extra Strong).

• Can stronger pouches cause side effects?

  Yes, symptoms include headaches, nausea, increased heart rate, gum irritation, and more with higher strengths.

• Do dot systems or labels help?

  Dots (e.g. 1–6) or labels ("light", "strong") indicate relative strength, but always check actual mg values.
