Biological processes underlying co-use of alcohol and nicotine: neuronal mechanisms, cross-tolerance, and genetic factors.

Alcohol research & health : the journal of the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism - 1 Jan 2006

Funk Douglas, Marinelli Peter W, Lê Anh D

Abstract excerpt

Alcohol and nicotine are two of the oldest and most commonly used recreational drugs, and many people use both of them together. Although their ready availability likely contributes to the strong correlation between alcohol and nicotine use, several lines of evidence suggest that biological factors play a role as well. For example, both alcohol and nicotine act on a brain system called the mesolimbic dopamine...
