Why Nicotine? Are you suffering with depression with your PCS?

Why not discuss Wellbutrin with your Doc instead - it binds the receptors rather nicely, moreso than nicotine, and treats depression - you therefore will receive a win / win - raising the dopamine in your brain and getting some care for the depression without the nicotine worry.

Really, avoid Nicotine at any cost , if you can.
