Nicotine patch

From Freepedia

A nicotine patch is a transdermal patch that releases nicotine into the skin. It is usually used as a method to quit smoking.

There are a few recorded cases in which nicotine addicts, against doctor's orders, died from heart failure after applying multiple patches and then smoking and consuming alcohol at the same time. Lawsuits by survivors of such decedents against the decedent's physician and the manufacturers of nicotine patches, cigarettes, and alcohol have all been generally unsuccessful.
