Mecamylamine moderates cue-induced emotional responses in smokers
Article Abstract:
Sixteen dependent smokers received mecamylamine or placebo capsules on two different days in a within-subjects design and the subjects imagined smoking urge and non-urge scenarios after smoking their usual brand vs. denicotinized cigarettes. Smoking usual brand cigarettes produced greater positive effects and mecamylamine blocked heart rate (HR) boost and cigarette sensory impact.
