Today I'm on my fourth day of not smoking. I've been using Sunmark brand 21 mg nicotine patches with no problems since Saturday. I left them on for a total of 12 hours and took them off before bed.
I ran out of Sunmark and put a CVS brand patch on today, same strength, instructions, etc. However, after about 6 hours I had a headache, was sweaty and anxious and my heart was going a little faster than usual. I took it off.
So, my question is can a person have a reaction to one brand of patch and not another? I'm also trying to figure out if I did something different with this one. The CVS patch didn't stick as well for me and I kept periodically rubbing at it. Is it possible I was accidentally speeding up the release of the nicotine into my bloodstream this way?
I'm confused. :/
