    I've never used them so I couldn't be 100% sure, but I'd imagine that with that high a nic strength in the juice, you could be susceptible to nicotine overdose. You might be ingesting too much and feel sick or dizzy, hopefully someone has further information for ya

    I have never done both,only because the patches did absolutely nothing for me until I took up vaping with 36mg nic & that cured my cravings straight away,moved down to 24mg after 2 weeks & that worked a treat,imo,just get rid of the patches & keep to 24mg nic in one tank & get yourself another tank & use 18mg.
    60 rollies a day for over 40 years & it was so easy for me to give up the analogues.

    It's usually considered a big no-no to consume any nicotine products while using a patch. This is due to the continuous delivery of nicotine via the patch and potentially overdosing, pushing blood pressure up etc.

    Doctors tend to under-prescribe the nicotine patch strength and this drives people to get their fix elsewhere.

    Take 1 or 2 months on the 24mg vape and this will move you away completely from the idea of smoking. After that reduce the strength and you won't even notice.
