Yes, nicotine affects nerves by stimulating the release of neurotransmitters, such as dopamine and norepinephrine, which can enhance alertness and mood. It binds to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the nervous system, leading to increased neuronal excitability and signaling. Over time, nicotine exposure can lead to changes in nerve function and contribute to addiction and withdrawal symptoms. Additionally, chronic nicotine use is associated with negative effects on overall nerve health.
