Clear the Air on Whether E-Cigs Can Help Quit Smoking
November 2026
Patients will ask you if e-cigarettes (or “vapes”) can help them quit smoking...since November is Tobacco Cessation Month.
We now have some evidence that “e-cigs” WITH nicotine might increase cigarette quit rates in about 4 more patients per 100...compared to nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) with patches, gum, etc.
Plus, limited evidence points toward no difference in adverse effects (headache, nausea, etc) between nicotine e-cigs compared to NRT.
