I don't think they necessarily cause nightmares, rather they cause very vivid dreams. I think this is because of the stimulant effect of nicotine. I was on the patch for 6 weeks, and even though I took it off prior to bedtime, I still had some very vivid dreams. This is a minor side effect in the grand scheme of things.
It stimulate your brains to think of something while sleeping??
