Nicotine Withdrawal

📋Overview

Nicotine withdrawal is a recognized clinical syndrome characterized by physical and psychological symptoms that manifest when an individual reduces or stops nicotine intake after prolonged use. This condition is a result of the brain's adaptation to chronic nicotine exposure. Common symptoms include irritability, anxiety, difficulty concentrating, increased appetite, and intense cravings for tobacco products. These symptoms typically peak within the first few days and gradually subside over several weeks.
