    Vaping for nicotine advantages?

    This will be my last comment on ecig regulation in this thread. Yes, I have been following the FDA's actions and the debate. I also believe that some version of the Cole-Bishop Amendment will make it into law this spring. Even if it doesn't, I'm guessing that at least one of the lawsuits...

    Vaping for nicotine advantages?

    This is quite a reactionary post. "They" are not intending to ban "ecig products", at least not the ones that are important. Just as you can still buy rolling papers for what ever purpose you want to use them for, you will still be able to purchase any vaping hardware you might want. You will...

    Vaping for nicotine advantages?

    This is true if you are defining "addiction" as habit strength. However, if you are defining "addiction" as most of the rest of the world does (i.e., continued or increase use of a substance because of some property of the substance), then the route of administration shouldn't matter if it...

    Vaping for nicotine advantages?

    Thinking about what I wrote above, when I arrived at my office at school I looked at 13 different textbooks in such areas as behavioral neuroscience, drugs, general psychology, etc., for references to statements like: "Nicotine is probably the most addictive drug that humans consume."...

    Vaping for nicotine advantages?

    Yes, I did find that interesting, but not too surprising. It's amazing how much of this is prevalent in the modern scientific literature. The problem is largely because of the laziness of the scientists. Quite often, you will find the primary reference to a "fact" being a source, like an...

    The last detailed chemical analysis was in 2013 and the number of products is just over 9600! Maybe I should have said something like "just under 10,000" :)

    For what it's worth this is the lecture I'll be giving tomorrow (please pardon the typos). I'll upload the reference section from the Surgeon General's 2010 report if anybody wants it. I'm sure some of the neuropharmacology will probably be difficult to interpret. I'll be happy to answer any...

    Vaping for nicotine advantages?

    It is mentioned in several threads here, including this one, I think. However, I'm now convinced that it is an urban legend.

    Vaping for nicotine advantages?

    This one will have to do. I didn't think there was an injection study, but a 6-month study with transdermal nicotine should do. After asll, 6-months of continuous nicotine exposure should certainly suggest that it isn't "addictive" as a drug, independent of other chemicals or habitual "smoking...

    Had that one, thanks. Was looking for studies that were said to have used injected nicotine to directly test the "addiction" hypothesis.

    Reference for paper where nicotine was chronically adminmistered

    In several forums and threads here, references to studies where nicotine was chronically administered to non-smokers for some number of days followed by no withdrawal effects were given. Does anybody have those references? If so, could you please post them.

    In several threads here, including this one, references are made to studies on non-smokers who received injections of nicotine for some number of days, after which no withdrawal was seen. Does anybody have a reference for this? Right now, I am believing that such studies are an urban legend...

    Vaping for nicotine advantages?

    I'm glad you reminded me of your thread. A lot of what I contributed to it I had mistakenly thought was in this thread. When I reread this thread last night, I didn't find a lot of things that I had said in it. I found them in your thread. Thanks! Also, it's a pity that your thread didn't...

    Vaping for nicotine advantages?

    Because most of the new information doesn't really have any practical relevance to the debates as they are construed, their inclusion would probably only serve to further confuse already confused bureaucrats. The new stuff just explains the phenomenology, it doesn't address safety, addiction, etc.

    Vaping for nicotine advantages?

    I'm pretty sure I posted at least one PDF to this thread. I know the software on which this forum is based accepts them, so I'm pretty confident it will work. Also, I don't have a "blog page" of which I am aware. If worse comes to worse, I can always upload it to MediaFire and hot link that here.

    Vaping for nicotine advantages?

    I'm kind of ashamed to admit my failure to keep up with the advances in the pharmacodynamics neuropharmacology of nicotine in favor of a selfish interest in the pharmacokinetics (absorption and distribution, mainly). An amazing amount of information about the brain nicotinic acetylcholine...
