Why does nicotine give you nightmares?!
Question: I was told that using a 24hour nicotine patch when you are stopping smoking will give you bad dreams and nightmares.
Can anyone explain how this happens?
Could this mean that getting a nightmare if you dont smoke is caused by some other substance in your body like caffeine or alcohol?
I get nightmares quite a lot, and I am trying to find out what is causing them.
Let me know if you have any ideas!
Thanks

Im don't really know - but I had the most horrific nightmares on them - would never take them again. Would frankly rather die from lung cancer. Good luck whatever you decide.
yes it can do. if this happens its recommended to use a 16 hr patch that u take off at night.
I've been on the nicotine patches for 9 weeks now and so far I've not had any funny dreams.
