The nicotine patch is an over-the-counter medicine that can help people stop smoking. The nicotine patch (NicodermÂ® CQÂ®) is a nonprescription medication used for nicotine replacement therapy. It helps people stop smoking by reducing nicotine withdrawal symptoms, including nicotine craving. Nicotine is a highly addictive drug. Each time you inhale from a cigarette, nicotine rapidly enters the brain, reaching peak levels within 10 seconds. In the brain, it activates brain reward centers, leading to feelings of pleasure. The effects of nicotine disappear quickly, however.
Report Abuse. The only thing nicotine patches do is satisfy your craving for nicotine. If you can make it just 4 days with out smoking you physical addiction will be gone. You will then need to work on the mental addiction.esterday, without the patch, I thought I was going to die without a cigarette and ended up buying a pack. Today is different. Good luck to anyone trying, you can do it! And I agree, if this doesn t work for you, try something else! Oh, and for the oral fixation, we are using e-hookahs with no nicotine.
