Dr. Michael Roizen answered:Side effects of suddenly stopping nicotine intake are that you want to smoke or get more nicotine. The patch, lozenge are much better than cigarettes because the cigarette or smoking gives you an inflammatory response in your lungs and esophagus, which causes real problems towards cancer. Nicotine in a pill or patch are much safer than all the other hydrocarbons that you get. The other side effects, in addition to really craving one, are that you may get your taste back and you may want to eat more, so that is why you should exercise, do walking, and weightlifting when you quit, or before you quit and into the quitting phase. Other side effects are that you may actually restore sexual pleasure and sexual function. That we consider a good thing.
