A member asked:
Is nicorette (nicotine gum) patches good for you when not needed, just to keep awake and alert if you need to drive?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not the best choice.: Nicotine replacement is only designed to assist in smoking cessation. While it is true that nicotine has some alerting characteristics there are better products to keep you awake.
