Well no, that's not good enough. Smoking tobacco releases many alkaloids that contribute to its benign effects. Smoking also does a fair bit of MAO-B inhibition. If you use a patch, nicotine gum or an electronic cigarette, you miss out on the alkaloids and the MAO-B-I.
There is a theoretical way to enjoy the benefits of tobacco without potentially developing lung cancer (and a host of other deadly diseases): vaporize it.
Current meds: clomipramine 225mg, fluvoxamine (Luvox) 50mg
As needed: bethanechol 25-50mg, oxazepam 5-10mg
