Nicotine Chewing gum & Lozenges in Italy

Unfortunately, I use a nicotine gum and lozenges. We will be in Italy for a month and I have enough to pack for the trip.
Does anyone know if there will be a problem entering customs in Italy with nicotine gum and lozenges?
Thank you!

Since it's available for sale in Italy, why don't you just buy it there?

I was unsure if you could buy Nicotine gum & lozenges in Italy. I tried to search but all I could come up with was “Suss” products.
Thank you for the response, I will do some more poking around and see if I can locate the products I am looking for. It may save me some luggage space.

I haven't had anybody look through my luggage when entering/exiting Europe for decades. I would be shocked a) if anybody discovered you brought in nicotine gum and lozenges and b) would care even if they somehow found out.

I think what you should worry about is how great a time you're going to have! A month in Italy! Fantastic!

Happy travels!

Italy doesn’t have strict regulations against bringing small amounts of nicotine products for personal use, so as long as it’s clear you’re not carrying large quantities, customs usually won’t bother you.
