How long do you get a buzz off the patch?

The effects of a nicotine patch can vary based on individual factors such as tolerance, the strength of the patch, and how long you've been using it. Generally, users may feel a mild buzz or relief from cravings within 30 minutes to a couple of hours after applying the patch. However, the patch is designed to provide a steady dose of nicotine over 16 to 24 hours, so the sensation is often more subdued compared to smoking. It's important to follow the recommended usage guidelines for the best results.
