"It is popular due to the
common misconception that the nicotine content in shisha is lower than that of cigarettes and that water used in this form of tobacco intake works as a filter, removing all the hazardous chemicals such as CO, nicotine and tar. These common misapprehensions lead public to believe that shisha smoking is not a hazard their health and others’"
"The famous misperception that the shisha is filtered due to the water in it seems to be one main belief justifying it being less injurious, however it is well known that making air bubbles pass through water doesn’t change their content and since the volatile carcinogen of tobacco smoke and other particles will stay within the air bubbles during their passage through water, it does not render shisha any less harmful, at least, than cigarette"

Peak concentration of nicotine in cigarette and shisha are same but the relatively long duration of the shisha use result in considerably greater effective nicotine exposure. Using a single-compartment pharmacokinetics model with linear clearance kinetics, and a nicotine clearance constant of 0.0333 min–1 obtained by fitting an exponential decay curve to the average nicotine concentrations at 5, 15, 30, and 45 minutes post–cigarette initiation (R2

0.9
,
the nicotine AUC observed in this study was 243 ng/ml-min for the cigarette and 418 ng/ml-min for shisha. Relative to a cigarette, shisha smokers were exposed to 1.7 times the nicotine dose when they were smoking tobacco through shisha"
