Your insert is describing SIDE EFFECTS. You know, the unwanted things that MIGHT happen to you when taking medication that otherwise has a beneficial purpose?
"Increases in heart rate and blood pressure" and "vasoconstriction" are not heart diseases. They are temporary effects, in any event. Drinking coffee increases your heart rate. Running increases your heart rate. Sex increases your heart rate.
Your package insert actually contradicts you. The fact that the FDA approved the product contradicts you. But the biggest fact that contradicts you is how the FDA classifies nicotine. They list the many many carcinogens and cardiovascular toxicants in tobacco, but nicotine, conspicuously, is not one of them.
So you are reduced to the assertion that nicotine is "very bad" for you. Butas with anything that can be bad for youremember the old saying, "the dose makes the poison." And there have been studies that show the ways nicotine can be GOOD for you.
