Understanding vaping for quitting smoking
Can I use vapes to quit smoking?
Whatever method you choose to quit smoking, plan to be completely free from nicotine in the long-term for your health. The Quitline or your doctor can help you to reduce your nicotine over time while managing any withdrawal symptoms.
It is important to know all vaping products (nicotine and non-nicotine) remain unapproved therapeutic goods. This means they have not been subjected to the same rigorous safety, quality and effectiveness testing as other evidence-based quit smoking aids that manage nicotine withdrawal.
When using vapes to quit smoking, it’s important to work towards being completely free from nicotine to protect your health. The Quitline or your doctor can help to tailor a plan that suits you.
For more information about using vapes for smoking cessation visit the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) website.
