Nicotine pouch calculators
Three questions every pouch user eventually asks, answered with numbers instead of guesses. The calculators show the figures they use and link the study or price data they come from, and the price map is built from cans people logged in the app. They are estimates, not medical advice.
Calculator
How Many Cigarettes Is One Zyn?
A 6 mg Zyn is about 1.5 cigarettes' worth of nicotine and a 3 mg Zyn about 0.8. Roughly: one cigarette per 4 mg of label strength.
- 3 mg pouch
- ≈ 0.8 cigarettes
- 6 mg pouch
- ≈ 1.5 cigarettes
- 9 mg pouch
- ≈ 2.3 cigarettes
10 pouches a day at 4 mg is about 10 cigarettes a day (range 7–13), or roughly 3.5 packs a week, by total nicotine exposure.
