Zyn is a brand of nicotine pouch that contains nicotine powder and flavorings. The pouches are placed between the gums and upper lip, where the nicotine is absorbed into the bloodstream. Zyn is marketed by Philip Morris International to adult tobacco users and has become popular among athletes.
ZYN nicotine pouches are like modern chewing tobacco without the need to spit, making them discreet for use when vaping isn’t allowed, such as during the school day. Available in flavors like mint, cinnamon, apple, and coffee, these pouches are becoming popular among influencers and teens.
Nicotine pouch users hold the pouch to their gum for up to an hour, which may cause a sore mouth or gum irritation.
