How much nicotine do you vape now vs how much did you use with the patches? I'm told the absorption rate of nicotine through the lungs is higher than through the skin, but I'm curious to find out from someone who has used both which method is more effective.
- proksoup 10y agoNothing beats the patch for consistent delivery. With vaping I have it more in bursts. It's possible that's true about absorption. I wonder if maybe more nicotine is wasted vaporizing because you breathe most of it out or something, or maybe I'm not breathing deeply enough, but with the method of vaping that makes me most comfortable I "use" >3x the mg of nicotine I had before, 4ml of 6mg/ml strength juice a day compared to one 7mg patch. I would say the patch is more consistent throughout the day, and the vape is easier to adjust throughout the day. Both are effective.
- proksoup 10y agoOh, absorption rate duh, yeah with the patch the onset is like an hour almost, vape hits you much faster.
