A new review finds nicotine e-cigarettes are the most effective method for quitting smoking compared to other aids.Summary
A massive review of 80 randomized controlled trials has found that nicotine e-cigarettes are the most effective option for people trying to quit smoking, outperforming nicotine replacement therapies like patches and gum. The study, which pooled data from over 1.6 million participants, provides high-certainty evidence that regulated nicotine e-cigarettes are substantially less harmful than smoking. While the review confirms their efficacy as a cessation tool, it does not address the long-term health effects of vaping itself or the outcomes for those who continue to vape after quitting smoking. The authors emphasize that while vapes are not risk-free, they are a proven and viable option for those currently smoking tobacco.
