Nicotine (found in tobacco) has been reported to enhance the effects of Adenosine on the heart; an increase in angina-like chest pains, heart rate or a decrease in blood pressure may be noted. While no special cautions are recommended when Adenosine is used therapeutically in an emergency hospital or clinic setting to treat fast heart rates, it is advisable for you to avoid Tobacco prior to heart-related studies or heart ''stress tests'' where Adenosine will be given. Discuss your use of tobacco with your health care provider prior to any heart-related procedures.
