Electronic cigarettes, also known as e-cigarettes, are battery-operated products designed to deliver nicotine, flavor, and other chemicals. They turn nicotine, which is highly addictive, and other chemicals into a vapor that is inhaled by the user.
E-cigarettes may contain ingredients that are known to be toxic to humans and may contain other ingredients that may not be safe. Additionally, these products may be attractive to young people and may lead kids to try other tobacco products, including conventional cigarettes, which are known to cause disease and lead to premature death.
Because clinical studies about the safety and efficacy of these products have not been submitted to the FDA, consumers currently have no way of knowing:
- Whether e-cigarettes are safe for their intended use,
- What types or concentrations of potentially harmful chemicals are found in these products,
- How much nicotine they are inhaling when they use these products.
