I can see why you had that question. I did, too, after reading that article abstract. What I want to know is whether on any of the accompanying drug information that came with your stop-smoking pill or that you can find on the Web about it says it specifically blocks those same alpha-7 nicotinic receptors in that article. I suspect that for you not to get any effects from a cannabis high, you'd have to take something that wholly blocked your CB1 receptors, but the fact that nicotinic-receptor blocking also seems to be an angle for blocking cannabis effects is astonishing news to me. I'll be interested to know what you experience when you try smoking cannabis while using that pill and whether you can tell any differences first-hand.

Fortunately, you've not been prescribed anything that blocks your CB1 receptors, but I'm gathering they must work together with those alpha-nicotinic receptors somehow. Be sure and follow up and let us know what you experience!
