Is it normal to not have nicotine cravings when on codeine cough syrup? I usually smoke around 3/4 of a pack a day, but since I started taking it around 5 pm yesterday I haven't had a single craving to smoke.

I think it's normal. When I'm on something I never have cravings for cigarettes; except for alcohol.

Perhaps it's a nicotine based product so it's chemically feeding your body.

Yeah usually I would be chewing instead of smoking, but I have no urge to at all. Maybe I can get my sorry ass to quit the shit.

It is weird, given codeine acts on the mu opioid receptor and nicotine acts on the acetylcholine receptor. But, the brain is complicated, so I am sure there is a relationship there.
