Date:11/2/2009

s physiologically everything the cigarette is doing? Smoking is a two-pronged problem. There's nicotine dependence and a behavioral aspect to it."

Dr. Elliot Wineburg, assistant clinical professor of psychiatry at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City, felt the study suffered from some limitations, namely lack of individual attention to individual smokers' habits.

"The authors said that they gave the patients lozenges according to the company's [instructions]," he said. But this doesn't take into account how much people smoke or how strong their cigarettes are. "They don't even look into the amount of nicotine a person takes."
