A group of Congressmembers today released a report that criticizes pharmaceutical companies for targeting kids with candy-flavored nicotine replacement products. In addition to using appealing flavors, the report says, the pharmaceutical companies are attracting youth by using social media, sponsorship of youth-oriented events, and television and radio advertisements that reach substantial youth audiences. The report, entitled "“Gateway to Addiction? A Study of Nicotine Replacement Product Manufactureres and Marketing to Youth," is the first investigation of tactics used by pharmaceutical companies to market nicotine gum and nicotine lozenges to youth.

These data cast further doubt on the statements made by CDC officials and a number of tobacco control researchers, who have publicly concluded that e-cigarettes are a gateway to smoking.

The bottom line: it appears that the use of electronic cigarettes has tremendous health benefits not only for those who quit smoking, but also for those who become dual users. While it may take longer for these individuals to eventually get off of nicotine altogether, it appears that the switch to e-cigarettes yields a much lower level of nicotine addiction, making it easier, not harder, to subsequently cease using nicotine if they so desire.
