E-cigarettes are sold online at the occasional mall kiosk and in some bars and restaurants with no age restrictions. The device comes with replaceable cartridges consisting different levels of nicotine.

“The e-cigarettes have never been studied for smoking cessation, so nobody knows if they are any more or less effective than other nicotine replacement products such as gums or patches”, said Director of the Clinical Behavioral Pharmacology Laboratory, Thomas Eissenberg, from Commonwealth University in Richmond.
