Anyone using Nicotine patches for Long Covid?
Post-COVID Recovery & COVID-19 | Last Active: 2 days ago | Replies (154)Comment receiving replies
I did the nicotine patches for over 6 weeks, working up the dosage. I never had any side effects but I also did not receive any benefits. I have decided that it will come back when it's good and ready or perhaps never.
I am lucky not to have any other lingering issues.

sorry to hear there were no benefits. I wonder if we need to be on it longer, take a break,
then resume. I will try that! Onward, cheers, E

I initially felt much better, but the benefits seemed to decrease over time. The adhesion from the patches was terrible for my skin, so I switched to gum. My only issue was some stomach upset. It was recommended to me (via FB group, Nicotine Test) that you use nicotine and then go off a while and I definitely feel better on it.
