The RGH E-Bulletin for this week
looks at e-cigarettes and indicates
that they “may be considered safer
than cigarettes.”
E-cigarettes are usually in the
form of a cigarette-shaped device
which delivers a mist for inhalation
of nicotine or other chemicals with
or without flavouring.
The E-Bulletin raises concerns
around the possibility of the
devices attracting new recruits that
otherwise may not be exposed to
nicotine.
Other countries’ experience is
also discussed.
