Nicotine, an organic compound in the tobacco plant is composed of carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen, and oxygen and belongs to a group of compounds called alkaloids. Plants usually produce these types of chemical poisons so that animals are deterred from eating them. In high concentrations, nicotine acts as a nerve poison and is used in insecticides. It increases blood pressure and heart rate, causes you to breathe faster and less deeply and it constricts the arteries.
