hiccups are a known warning sign of nic OD as well. So you may wanna cut down on your mg and vape more, or just use the high mg, and vape less. This would of course depend on how much your vaping now.
When I vape alot of high mg, I get the hiccups and stop. Wait about 30mins to a hour then repeat. Thats why I mostly vape only 18mg.

Every so often, this happens to me. I'll just hiccup on every inhale and it's really annoying. It only happens once every few weeks though, so I'm not sure what's up with that. I would assume it's the nicotine though, as Start said.

That used to happen to me a lot when I smoked analogs. Hiccup on every drag when I got a spell of them. Drove me nuts. Haven't really seen it happen with vaping though.

It is more likely the act of inhaling or preparing for the act of inhaling that increases your chance of hiccups. The phrenic nerve being irritated is the cause of hiccups. With nicotine gum, it is the act of swallowing nicotine in saliva that causes some irritation and therefore hiccups. Hiccups are not a listed side effect of nicotine patches.

This thread should probably be in the health section and you might find more thorough information.

I guess I got lucky, even when chain vaping 30mg I don't get hiccups. I guess my body just handles nic very easily, but the same applies to me in other drugs. I have to drink somewhere near 6 beers to feel a buzz and take 3-4 advils (as advised by my doctor and pharmacist) to get any pain relief.

High tolerance costs too much money.

Wow, chain vaping 30 mgs, you are lucky you are not getting hiccups.

I use 18 mgs. I always wondered if that was on the very high end or low. I assume medium though. I tried to wean myself down to 12 mgs, but didn't get the same satisfaction. I guess 18 mgs it will be. LOL

I get hiccups when I taste my juice while mixing - without fail.

Definitely the nicotine.

I always wondered about how I would get hiccups the most when I had a few beers. I wasn't sure if it was the beers causing it, or the fact that I chain smoked analogs only when I had a few. I'm thinking now it was probably the latter vs the former.
