Nicotine gum, an FDA-approved medication containing nicotine polacrilex as its active ingredient, is utilized to aid individuals in quitting smoking. The market for nicotine gum is influenced by several factors, such as the increasing preference for smoking cessation aids, government efforts to regulate tobacco consumption, and the growing number of smoking-related deaths. For instance, the UK government's goal to achieve a smoke-free status by 2030 has resulted in substantial investments in stop-smoking services and other initiatives designed to assist individuals in quitting smoking.

The global demand for nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) products, like nicotine gum, has been on the rise in recent years as more individuals seek ways to quit smoking and minimize their contact with the harmful substances present in tobacco smoke. Current trends in the global NRT market involve the creation of more user-friendly and efficient NRT products, such as extended-release gums, and the increasing preference for flavored choices. Additionally, the significant number of deaths attributed to smoking has driven manufacturers to create new products that minimize tobacco-related harm, thereby propelling market expansion. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the projected number of tobacco smokers across the African, American, European, and South East Asian regions will be 62 million, 118 million, 168 million, and 418 million, respectively, by 2025. Such factors drive the demand for nicotine gums globally.
