> WOW. This Taurine sounds like a magic pill. With the effects that it has on alcoholism, is it possible that it would help with cigarette addiction?? I HATE being a smoker. I have tried all of the patch, nicorette gum, welbutrin, etc. Whenever I try to quit smoking it sends me into a severe tailspin. As I am severely depressed at the moment, making it worse is not a good idea!!

> IndieI looked closely at the topic, and you weren't the first to wonder. Experiments using lab animals were an utter failure, and I saw no human trials of any sort. Seems to be very alcohol-specific. That said, it may still have calming properties that might help during withdrawal, but not specific to withdrawal.
