Definition:This is any condition in which the main influencing factor is nicotine, a highly toxic alkaloid. Nicotine is a racemate composed of equimolar amounts of (R)- and (S)-nicotine. It is the prototypical agonist at nicotinic cholinergic receptors where it dramatically stimulates neurons and ultimately blocks synaptic transmission.
Synonyms:exact_synonym: (R,S)-nicotine;   (RS)-nicotine;   rac-3-(1-methylpyrrolidin-2-yl)pyridine
