Study Summary

They must smoke at least 10 cigarettes daily for the past year, want to try e-cigarettes or nicotine pouches, and be able to use a smartphone for surveys. Pregnant women, recent participants in other trials, those planning to use unapproved cessation products, or with certain health conditions cannot participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if alternative harm reduction products like BIDI e-cigarettes and on! nicotine pouches help smokers quit after failing with Nicoderm patches or Nicorette gum/lozenges. Initially offered NRTs for four weeks, non-quitters are then randomly assigned to new products or continue NRT as control.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include irritation from e-cigarette vapor or nicotine pouches; possible addiction; throat/mouth discomfort; nausea; headaches; dizziness from high nicotine intake. Individual reactions may vary.
