Nicotine does not cause cancer

Filed in archive News on November 7, 2005


Many smokers think nicotine causes cancer - which is not true:

"Just the opposite is true," Reichert told Reuters Health. "Nicotine does not cause cancer, but that is why patients are reluctant to use patches to help them quit ... It's the cigarette smoke that contains carcinogens, neurotoxins and other toxins."
