Vapers are increasingly choosing high-strength nicotine e-cigarettes, with usage rising from 3.8% to 33% in England by 2024. The trend is more significant among young adults and users of disposable vapes. Research shows high-nicotine options are more effective in smoking cessation. Taxing vaping products based on nicotine could hinder quitting efforts. Experts suggest increasing prices of all vapes to deter underage use while ensuring high-nicotine vapes remain accessible for adult smokers.
