Using nicotrol (nicotine patch) to stop smoking but is it also cancerious ?

Not carcinogenic: Nicotrol (nicotine patch) is just nicoine, and nicotine by itself is not known to be carcinogenic. However, if you are worried, best thing to do is to taper off Nicotrol (nicotine patch) after successful with stop smoking.
