It acts on the brain in the same way as caffeine or, indeed, any emotion and eating chocolate or a Big Mac. That's why it's 'addictive'.

Apart from being very mildy toxic in the doses deliveried, it has many beneficial effects which the pharmaceutical companies are researching to treat conditions as diverse as Parkinson's Disease, obesity and colonitis and for pain relief.

When smoked in a cigarette, most of the nictine is oxidised to nicotinic acid, also known as niacin or vitamin B3.
