Nicotine = vasoconstrictor

DHE = mega vasoconstrictor

Doing both at the same time = MONDO vasoconstrictor

The last thing I wanted while gagging on DHE was a smoke. [smiley=smokin.gif] Heal now, smoke later. Good luck.

I have never had a problem with smoking and taking dhe. Mind you I don't smoke while getting a shot.
