* Included here as it may have found ENDS use reduced or accidental quitters from NRT use. See section 1 here [[snw:Myth: Alternative nicotine products don't help people stop smoking|Myth: Alternative nicotine products don't help people stop smoking]]. | |||
*Electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) are used by smokers seeking to reduce combustible cigarette (CC) use, but the role of nicotine replacement vs. behavioral and sensory factors is still poorly understood. We hypothesized that providing nicotine from ENDS in addition to nicotine skin patches would promote smoking reduction relative to non-nicotine control ENDS. | |||
*The use of nicotine in ENDS led to significant reductions in smoking (ENDS nicotine vs. placebo difference in CO change = −9.2 ppm; 90% CI (−1.5 ppm, −16.9 ppm)) and was highly correlated with reductions in self-reported cigarettes per day (''r''=0.6). The effect of nicotine in nicotine patches was not statistically significant (patch nicotine vs. placebo difference in CO change = −0.1 ppm; 90% CI (−7.8 ppm, 7.6 ppm)). | |||
*The presence of nicotine in ENDS was associated with a large reduction in smoking. Additional studies will be needed to determine whether there may be additive effects of nicotine ENDS and nicotine patches on smoking abstinence. | |||
*Note: Some success has been had with NHS stop smoking services, particularly after the 20mg nicotine cap. It might be that if nicotine is restricted in ENDS then additional sources of nicotine become more important? (Sadly the NHS have not provided numbers yet, but we welcome more research and data.
