    Nicotine has both a potentiating effect and the side effect of increasing the rate at which your body eliminates caffeine, and caffeine is a popular drug of choice for self-medication for ADHD.

    However, getting on ADHD medication will not necessarily cause you to quit craving or using nicotine because nicotine is a highly addictive substance. Once you have started, the only way to quit using nicotine is to overcome your addiction and cease using it.
