"Dripping" with nicorette nasal spray?

**shogun** · 05-07-2008, 02:02 PM

Maybe a silly question. Is the liquid in Nicorette nasal spray similar to e-liquid used to drip? Can it be used to drip e-cigs?

It surely won't be 80% propylene glycol. And that's the stuff you see as vapor.

Besides, using a Big Pharma product has to be more expensive than using e-liquids.

I PM'd Dr. Loi on using e-liquid on a Band-Aid pad as a "patch" overnight (I always wake up wanting a cigarette!). Doesn't work well, he said. I tried it. He's right. Doesn't work well. And ingesting this stuff to the stomach by any method is an invitation to problems, since our digestive tract messes up nicotine and oral consumption invites pancreatic cancer down the road. I think we're stuck with puffing nicotine-laced liquid.

I never was good at doing nasal sprays for colds, maybe some ppl like sniffing things up their noses but not for me

Awe come on.
Duct tape with a folded square of toilet paper soaked with 36mg cut with a little everclear. Should make a dandy patch that won't ever fall off, even in the shower.
LOL

That would be better than dripping nicorette.

I don't think that it would be advisable. There are probably other ingredients in the nasal spray that we are not inhaling with our e-liquid (possibly not safe). Besides, that product was designed to be absorbed into the mucous membranes in the nose. even "if" safe to inhale, it might not be effective by inhaling.

Just my opinion....

I wouldn't do it, just seems too risky for me especially if it has any kind of propellent in it and you have just the right situation where you end up with combustion. E-Juice is soo much cheaper than any of that stuff anyway - oh and way better tasting than something that you shoot up your nose.
