"When many cures are offered for a disease, it means the disease is not curable" -Anton Chekhov
''Once you tell people there's a cure for something, the more likely they are to pressure doctors to prescribe it.'' -Robert Ehrlich, drug advertising executive.
"Opinions are like sphincters, everyone has one." - Chris Rangel
Nicotine Cough Drops: Not really, but they might as well be. The FDA has approved a nicotine lozenge to help people quit smoking. The one concern I have is that, unlike the nicotine gum, nicotine lozenges will result in prolonged close contact of nicotine with the mucosal surfaces of the mouth and tongue. They could conceivably result in higher rates of oral cancer, in much the same way that chewing tobacco does. posted by Sydney on
