Paris’ plans to ban nicotine pouches do not add value to public health
France’s plan to ban nicotine pouches seems like a counterproductive step that may increase the illegal trade of cigarettes and smokeless tobacco products. Instead, adopting a harm-reduction approach like Sweden’s could be more beneficial for public health. Sweden's model has been effective in reducing smoking rates, bringing the country close to achieving its smoke-free target. Nicotine pouches have become popular in France, particularly among people looking to quit smoking. However, Health Minister Geneviève Darrieussecq has called them "dangerous products" due to their high nicotine content, and a ban is expected to be announced soon.
