Maybe but I am not sure about the connection between nicotinic acid (vitamin B3) and nicotine?

Also his message is that rather than being a simple viral cold or flu, COVID 19 integrates snake venom peptides (as the spike protein). Peptides which attach to the nicotine receptors, which is why nicotine is therapeutic.

Dr. William Whitby pro-tobacco book "Smoking is Good for You" says:

. Nicotine can be converted to Nicotinic Acid. While not the same substance as nicotine, nicotinic acid is commonly prescribed by doctors all over the world for diseases of the circulation . But the very name is abhorrent to some tobacco-hating doctors. Since, because of its undeniable value, it cannot be replaced by any other effective medication, there have been suggestions to change the name so that patients won't think they are being benefited by nicotine


Both nicotine and nicotinic acid (B3) help symptoms of schiophrenia but I dunno about the chemistry. Not much info I've found other than that single claim.

Niacin was called nicotinic acid originally because it can be created with the oxidation of nicotine and nitric acid. ergo reduction of niacin would be...?

This paper says maybe yes:

Article says that Niacin helps for covid by addressing NAD depletion. Guess what Nicotine also does this apparently at least in mice.

Physicians in India have recommended "the mass scale distribution and use of nicotinamide (NAM) supplementation to decrease COVID- 19 prevalence," based on recent Phase II clinical studies observing that nicotinamide supplementation with the standard of care demonstrably reduced COVID-19 patient recovery time by nearly 30% compared to standard of care alone. [25]

In a mouse model COVID-19 study, injected NAD kept them alive. [26] Investigators examining the effect of treatment with NAD+ found that the pneumonia phenotypes, including excessive inflammatory cell infiltration and embolization in SARS-CoV-2 infected lungs were significantly rescued by boosting NAD+ levels. Most notably, cell death was suppressed by greater than 65% with NAD+ supplementation!
