- 6-Methylnicotine is a nicotine analogue with worse toxicity data and little public research.
- Two companies, Sett and Chewbizz, market 6-methylnicotine products (pouches and gum) with L-theanine additives.
- The author tried 6-methylnicotine but found it less effective for productivity compared to regular nicotine.
- 6-Methylnicotine has fewer physical side effects but causes dissociation and idle mental stimulation.
- Other users report mixed experiences, from mild effects to euphoria and reduced nicotine dependence.
- The author wishes for more research on nicotine analogues, similar to Shulgin’s psychedelic research program.
- Big Pharma explores nicotinic compounds for smoking cessation, but cognitive enhancement potential remains untapped.
