A composition for administration to the nasal mucosa of a subject comprises a solution of nicotine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in a pharmaceutically acceptable solvent. The composition has a nicotine concentration less than 10 mg/ml. The composition used alone assists in reduction of the desire of a subject to smoke tobacco. It also reduces the nasal symptoms associated with administration of higher concentrations of nicotine to the nasal mucosa. |
