The answer to this question would be: true

Nicotine is a parasympathomimetic stimulant that can be found in some plants. Nicotine can increase various neurotransmitter in the brain like dopamine, serotonin, epinephrine, non-epinephrine. The effect on dopamine will result in an excitation of the reward system and related to the addiction mechanism in smoking.
