  1. If you suspect nicotine ingestion you should contact poison control immediately.

    There is no antidote for nicotine poisoning. Treatment is aimed at supportive

    care and monitoring the patient’s breathing and vital signs.

    If you have a poisoning emergency call: 1-800-222-1222


  2. Ask the bartender to call 911.

  3. You can treat it, but you can't cure it with a specific antidote.

    You make sure the pulse and respiration are stable. Establish an airway if necessary. Be prepared to treat a seizure. Since ingestion was recent, try to lavage the stomach. Administer activated charcoal to decrease absorption. Several doses may be necessary. Intravenous diazepam can be used to control agitation or seizures, but be careful with this. You may need to intubate if you haven't already.  Go to church, make several novenas and a solemn vow to keep your ACLS/PALS certificate up to date.
