Helping smokers who aren't ready to quit
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests whether switching to a less harmful nicotine product (like a nicotine pouch or e-cigarette) can help people who are not ready to quit smoking reduce their health risks. You would be given a sample of a harm reduction product to try, and researchers will check how it affects your smoking habits.
