Can nicotine still getting your blood system if you don't inhale?

Yes...: Nicotine can enter your blood stream very efficiently through the lining of your mouth. This is why some people chew tobacco, and why cigars are so satisfying to some smokers.

Nicotine.: Agree with Dr. Arenberg. Not inhaling does not equate to not absorbing any nicotine.
