A study on mice found a deep correlation with nicotine and later cocaine addiction. There were two groups of mice, one group was exposed to nicotine while the other (the control group) was not. The former group showed many more signs of addiction than the control group. Another study done shows that 81% of youth that started to do cocaine do so in months where they weer actively smoking cigarettes. The researchers intend on going on to human trials next and if the same correlations are made then would potentially make less smokers mean less cocaine addicts.
