Claims

1. A device for providing nicotine replacement therapy, comprising:
a dispenser for dispensing the nicotine formulation;
an actuation member mounted to actuate the dispenser;
a lockout mechanism movable between an operative position that allows the actuation member to move to actuate the dispenser and a non-operative position that prevents the actuation member from moving;
1. A processor comprising:
determining the amount of nicotine previously consumed by the user;
a processor configured to send a lockout mechanism signal to the lockout mechanism causing the lockout mechanism to move to the inoperative position.

The processor,
determining a nicotine threshold for the user, the nicotine threshold taking into account nicotine consumption from one or more sources;
2. The device of claim 1, further configured to: determine whether the amount of nicotine previously consumed by the user exceeds the nicotine threshold; and wherein the lockout mechanism signal to move the lockout mechanism to the inoperative position is sent under a condition that the amount of nicotine previously consumed by the user exceeds the nicotine threshold.

The device,
a transmitter for transmitting a nicotine amount signal indicative of the amount of nicotine previously consumed by the user;
10. The device of claim 1, further comprising: a receiver for receiving a lock signal indicating that the lockout mechanism is moved to the inoperative position.

The device of claim 1, further comprising a sensor for measuring a physiological parameter.

The device further comprises a transmitter, the processor further comprising:
receiving a sensor signal from the sensor for measuring a first physiological parameter indicative of a value of the first physiological parameter of the user;
determining the value of the first physiological parameter of the user based on the sensor signal;
The device of claim 4 , further configured to instruct the transmitter to transmit the value of the first physiological parameter of the user.

The processor,
determining a number of actuations of the dispenser associated with a time period;
Obtaining a concentration of the nicotine formulation;
2. The device of claim 1, further configured to determine an amount of nicotine consumed by the user during the period based on the number of actuations and the concentration of the nicotine formulation, wherein the amount of nicotine previously consumed by the user is determined based on the amount of nicotine consumed by the user during the period.

The device of claim 1, wherein the processor is further configured to determine that the user is experiencing a nicotine craving and that a condition indicates that the user should not receive a dose of the nicotine formulation, and upon determining that the user is experiencing the nicotine craving, a lockout mechanism signal is sent to the lockout mechanism to move the lockout mechanism to the inoperative position.

The device further comprises a motion sensor, and the processor:
receiving a motion signal from the motion sensor;
determining from the movement signals that the user is restless for a period of time;
The device of claim 1 , further configured to send an indication of the user's restlessness.

1. A device for providing nicotine replacement therapy, comprising:
Memory,
1. A processor comprising:
determining that the user is experiencing nicotine craving;
determining an amount of nicotine previously consumed by said user;
determining a nicotine threshold for said user;
determining that the amount of nicotine previously consumed by the user is below the nicotine threshold;
and a processor configured to send a message to the user advising them to dispense a dose of nicotine to reduce the nicotine craving.

10. The device of claim 9, wherein the message is a first message, and the processor is further configured to send a second message to the nicotine delivery device instructing the nicotine delivery device to dispense the dose of nicotine.

10. The device of claim 9, wherein the processor is further configured to determine that the user is experiencing the nicotine craving using at least one of detected movement, physical location, time of day, scheduled activities, the user's calendar, social media data, and biometric measurements.

10. The device of claim 9, wherein the processor is configured to determine that the user is experiencing the nicotine craving using a resting heart rate associated with the user or using changes in the user's perceived heart rate.

The processor determines the amount of nicotine previously consumed by the user.
determining one or more tobacco products consumed by the user within a period of time; and determining a level of nicotine associated with the one or more tobacco products.
The device of claim 9 , further configured to determine by:

The processor determines the nicotine threshold of the user by:
determining one or more smoking behaviors of the user; and determining a smoking cessation program for the user based on the one or more smoking behaviors of the user.
The device of claim 9 , further configured to determine by:

1. A device for providing nicotine replacement therapy, said device comprising:
A dispenser body;
a dispenser for dispensing a dose of the nicotine formulation;
an actuation member mounted to actuate the dispenser;
a carriage mounted for movement relative to the dispenser body upon contact with the actuation member;
a sensor configured to detect movement of the carriage;
a processor, the processor comprising:
determining that the dose of the nicotine formulation has been dispensed based on a signal from the sensor;
The device is configured to deliver an indication of the dosage of the nicotine formulation.

The device of claim 15, wherein the carriage is a magnetic carriage and the sensor is a magnetic sensor that can detect when the magnetic carriage is within range.

The processor,
16. The device of claim 15, further configured to determine a time when the dose of the nicotine formulation was dispensed, and the indication of the dose further indicates the time.

the dose of the nicotine formulation is a first dose, and the processor:
determining the amount of nicotine previously consumed by the user;
determining an expected craving time using the time that the first dose of the nicotine formulation was dispensed and the amount of nicotine previously consumed by the user;
18. The device of claim 17, further configured to provide a notification suggesting a second dose of the nicotine formulation at the expected craving time.

The processor,
Receive heart rate data associated with a user ;
Using the received heart rate data to determine at least one of a heart rate trend of the user or a change in the heart rate trend of the user ;
determining an expected occurrence time of a smoking incident;
16. The device of claim 15 , further configured to instruct the actuation member to actuate the dispenser such that the dispenser dispenses a quantity of the nicotine formulation at or prior to the expected time of occurrence of the momentary smoking event.

The processor,
receiving data from a wearable device associated with a user, the data including one or more of heart rate, heart rate variability, blood pressure, temperature, respiration rate, oxygen saturation, carboxyhemoglobin, carbon monoxide, galvanic skin response, and accelerometer data ;
The device of claim 15 , further configured to modify the user's personalized nicotine replacement or reduction therapy program based on the received data.

The processor,
determining a total amount of nicotine consumed, the total amount of nicotine consumed being indicative of an amount of nicotine previously consumed by the user;
determining an amount of nicotine to be dispensed;
16. The device of claim 15, further configured to: instruct the actuation member to actuate the dispenser such that the dispenser dispenses the amount of nicotine if the total amount of nicotine consumed and the amount of nicotine dispensed are less than a maximum daily nicotine dosage.
