Is it very easy to overdose on nasal snuff? I use it on occasion and have always wondered about od'ing on it. Especially with using e cigs too

Not really. Each sniff gives about a quarter of the nicotine of a regular strength cigarette. Assuming two sniffs (one per nostril!), that would mean you'd have to snuff twice as frequently a smoking to even equal cigarettes.

Thank you!!!!! You don't know how long I've been looking for that info. And since it's almost impossible to od on nic with cigarettes, even with smoking e cigs, it would still be almost impossible. (Especially with the vomiting, etc. that goes with doing to much. So I should be safe snuffing (is that the word for it?) and using my e cigs, as long as I don't start feeling sick.

I use both and have never even come close to OD'ing on the combination. Now snus is a different matter. I've been violently ill twice by overdosing on nicotine from strong snus. It sneaks up on you, too, unlike the instant hit of a cigarette, e-cig or nasal snuff.

Yes, to concur with this.

We have to be a little bit careful when combining things and snus (and/or regular smoking) are high-hitters so mixing snus/analogs with any of the other alternatives requires some awareness of the potential for ODing. Not death realisitically but non-mortal(!) ODing is not pleasant.

I think I read somewhere that it's practically impossible to OD with analogs because they take too long to smoke but adding other things into the mix changes things.

Take care but enjoy...
