In my experience, smokeless tobacco rather makes opiates more euphoric.
One study suggests that nicotine and other chemicals in tobacco cause the opiate metabolites to break down faster, therefor increasing the "rush" and overall feeling.
For example, when I take around 80mg of oxycodone (tolerance I know) and then smoke a few cigarettes or pack a lip of chewing tobacco, the opiate seems to kick in faster and I go on the nod a lot faster. Overall, I thoroughly enjoy the following effect.
The downsides to using both these drugs together are subjective but:
1. Using tobacco and opiates greatly reenforces the addictive properties of both drugs.
2. If I've taken a lot of opiates throughout the day, even with my tolerance (I usually take around 180-200mg daily), I tend to get extremely nauseated and the chance of vomiting increases significantly (trust me on this heh).
The patch or gum.
Teens are increasingly using smokeless tobacco due to a combination of factors, including peer pressure, the perception that it is less harmful than smoking cigarettes, and aggressive marketing by tobacco companies. The availability of flavored products makes smokeless tobacco more appealing to younger audiences. Additionally, social media and popular culture often glamorize tobacco use, contributing to its normalization among adolescents.
Using smokeless tobacco increases the risk of high blood pressure, which can lead to cardiovascular disease. It also increases the chances of cardiovascular stroke. Smokeless tobacco is highly addictive because of its high nicotine levels.
Use of smokeless tobacco among teens had been showing a decline over the past decade-until 2009.According to the survey, current use of smokeless tobacco among 8th-graders was 3.7 percent and 6.5 percent for 10th-graders. Among 12th-graders, 8.4 percent reported using smokeless tobacco in the last month, a number not seen since 1999.

As of recent surveys, approximately 4-5% of high school students in the United States reported using smokeless tobacco products. This figure can vary slightly depending on the specific year and survey methodology.

Yes, using smokeless tobacco after wisdom teeth removal can increase the risk of developing a dry socket. The chemicals in smokeless tobacco can interfere with the healing process, impair blood flow, and cause irritation to the extraction site. It is generally recommended to avoid all forms of tobacco during the recovery period to promote healing and reduce complications. Always consult with your dentist or oral surgeon for personalized advice.
Partially. It will certainly end up in better shape than it will if you don't stop. If nothing else, you'll get your senses of taste and smell back.
The 2004 data from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) showed that among adults aged 18 and older, about 3% of people (6% of men and less than 1% of women) were current users of smokeless tobacco. But rates among young people are higher. According to the CDC's 2007 survey, more than 13% of male high school students and 2% of female high school students were using smokeless tobacco. The CDC 2006 Youth Tobacco Survey reported that, of middle school students, 4% of the boys and 1% of the girls reported using smokeless tobacco at least once in the 30 days before the survey. Teens who use smokeless tobacco are more likely to smoke later.
one inserts the tobacco if it is dip or snuff between the gum and lip preferably on the lower jaw and is sucked on and spit until it is discarded. Chewing tobacco is ripped off of a plug and then chewed and spit in the same manner as gum.
Using 20 years, 2 tins a day. Just got a clean bill of health.
It is very serious and if it starts to turn to a burnt black color then it is caused by smokeless tobacco and soon after the black spots takeover the white spots you can and will die! It doesn't take that long! If you get these symptoms I would go to a doctor and STOP USING SMOKELESS TOBACCO OR EVEN SMOKING CIGARETTES!!!!
