Oppose the Nicotine Limits to Pouches in Sweden Now!

In March, Inga-Lill Askersjö submitted a report to Sweden's Minister of Social Affairs regarding harm reduction strategies for nicotine products. The report suggests limiting nicotine content in pouches, measuring nicotine per gram, and creating nicotine-free schools. However, these proposals could limit access for adults and reduce the effectiveness of nicotine pouches for smoking cessation. The report overlooks harm reduction benefits and could increase the appeal of nicotine among minors.


8.00% of the adult population are current smokers. There are approximately 667,950 current smokers in Sweden.
