I have not heard of the patches used for this particular problem, but I have heard of them being used in the work place to help desk employees to become more productive and allert and require less rest periods. I find this current so called "research" on the benifits of nicotine pretty laughable as an ex-smoker of 42 years. (I quit last year). And as a former smoker I am pretty sinsitive of the social, medical, and political rederic and pressure to quit smoking. Smoking in this day and age around anyone else is just plain not done because of the social pressure not to; unless of course if you live in Europe and not the US. In European Countries they pretty much think that we're nuts because of our attitude about smoking. Anyway, I question the sourse and motivational interests of such so called tests. But, as an ex-smoker, I can attest to the fact that nicotine does highten the numbing effect to stress, because it shrinks the capilaries in the brain, and it does cause a hightened sense of awarness, (clarity), also because of the nicotine's effect on the brain (it is euforic). So to use nicotine for it's calming, clearing, resting and refocusing effects on the brain of AD sufferers, is not suprising to me. What is suprising is that society more readily accepts the effects of nicotine on the brain in the form of a medisional patch, but not dispensed in the form or a paper tube. This I feel, is the hight of hypocracy.
