Demand the Truth About E-cigarettes!

Electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) use has been on the rise, since they’re presented as a less harmful alternative to smoking tobacco. But a recent study found that e-cigarettes actually make it more difficult to stop smoking, and could even be a gateway to tobacco.

E-cigarettes contain a high dose of nicotine, which maintains—rather than breaks—the cycle of nicotine dependency. The study, published by Lancet Respiratory Medicine, strongly suggests that adults who smoke e-cigarettes are 28 percent more likely to keep smoking than if they had tried a different cessation program.

None of the companies that manufacture e-cigarettes have submitted an application to the FDA to approve e-cigarettes as a smoking cessation device, and the FDA has not taken action to reprimand e-cigarette companies for false advertising. Since these products are so unregulated, they could even contain unknown chemicals and toxins. 

Demand the truth about e-cigarettes. Add your name and urge Congress to regulate e-cigarettes and prohibit false advertising!

Dear Decision Maker, 

I am alarmed at how unregulated the electronic cigarette industry is.

Most people start smoking e-cigarettes because they erroneously believe the product will help them stop tobacco use, or that e-cigarettes are a less harmful alternative to tobacco. In fact, a new study published by published by Lancet Respiratory Medicine shows this is not the case:

E-cigarettes reinforces tobacco addiction by maintaining a cycle of nicotine dependency.

Please regulate e-cigarettes and prohibit false claims or advertising that they are useful in smoking cessation.

Sincerely,

YOU have made a difference. Today, FDA announced new regulations on e-cigarettes and other tobacco products. When you called on Congress to regulate e-cigarettes recently, you highlighted the potential dangers of these products and paved the way for better regulations.
