* Among men who reported life-time experience with both products, a large majority had initiated their tobacco use with cigarettes.

* The average number of cigarettes smoked weekly was lower among dual users compared with current smokers who were former snus users or had never used snus.

* During the period 2003–15 in Norway, which has a mature snus market, even though smoking has declined and the relative size of the category of never-smokers among male users of snus has increased, the majority of snus users are still former or current smokers.

* While most snus users among older women were former or current smokers, this was not the case among younger women.

* The correlates of female snus use and smoking were not identical, and were similar to those previously documented for men.

* Female snus use was positively associated with intermediate education, alcohol consumption, number of sexual partners, and hard physical activity.

* Smoking was also positively associated with alcohol consumption and number of sexual partners, but negatively associated with physical activity and education.

* In the mature snus market of Norway, the magnitude of dual use of cigarettes and snus is relatively small.

* Dual users consume fewer cigarettes, and a higher proportion portray themselves as smoke-free in the future than do exclusive cigarette smokers.

=== '''* The quit ratio for cigarette smoking is higher among snus users than non-users''' ===
