  • Electronic cigarettes: A briefing for stop smoking services

    This 2016 edition of the NCSCT electronic cigarette briefing was written to assist stop smoking services to support people who want to quit smoking with the aid of an e-cigarette.

    In such a rapidly moving field some of the information is now out of date and some of the guidance lags behind current guidance. The principles remain largely relevant and our online training module on e-cigarettes contains up to date evidence and guidance.

    The briefing brings together evidence on the use, effectiveness and safety of electronic cigarettes and gives guidance to stop smoking services on becoming an e-cigarette friendly service. It includes practical recommendations and frequently asked questions with suggested answers.
