Speaking from personal experience, smoking while on the patch causes nausea, diziness... like you are stoned. You essentially overdose on nicotine. Some side effects may include, extreme dizziness, nauseousness, stroke, heart failure, and death. Don't do it!!

Recent studies have found that using the patch for 2 weeks before your quit date actually doubles the success rate of quitting. This is according to a Duke University Medical Center study among others. A larger study is currently under way and if this study confirms the results of the first study the FDA may need to re-evaluate it's current warning.
