Does Nicorette Gum Contain Sulfa?

Does nicorette gum contain sulfa? I am allergic to sulfa drugs and chew nicorette gum. I have been experiencing severe nerve neuropathy and or small vessel inflamation in which the Drs are confused. Can this be caused by the nicorette gum and hidden sulfa?

Hi,
As far as my knowledge extends, there is no sulfa drugs in Nicorette gums.
Nicorette gums have content of 1 or 2 cigarettes mostly.
That comes to almost 2 to 4 mg of nicotine.
Moreover, i apologise as i can not throw more light on your query due to lack of sufficient information.
Hope you get well soon.
Thank you.
