I know there have been several medications relesed recently to help with nicotine withdrawal.
They target the nicotinic receptors in the brain. They stimulate certain ones to help rid cravings, but block the ones stimulated by smoking, so there is no pleasure felt by a cigarette.
I can't think of any names right now. Maybe someone could help me out.
Anyway, I was thinking, wouldn't this be a good idea for an antidepressant?
