I can't offer any real advice as my drug of choice is nicotine delivered by a non-filtered paper tube filled with full flavor tobacco. I don't smoke any more but it is still there. If I have a beer with people who smoke there is a real danger that I would bum a cigarette off of them and I would be back in the smoke ring.
