Vapes are available from online pharmacies in Australia
Nicotine e-liquids for adult Australian vapers can be legally bought from online pharmacies with a prescription, despite initial confusion about a supposed ban. Online pharmacies offer a range of vape products like pod vapes and refills, but flavors are limited to tobacco, mint, menthol, and unflavored. E-liquids over 20mg/mL require a prescription. Some states restrict selling lower concentration e-liquids online. Online availability is crucial, especially for vapers in remote areas, as physical pharmacies rarely stock vape supplies. Lack of online access could lead vapers to revert to smoking.
12.50% of the adult population are current smokers. There are approximately 2.6 million current smokers in Australia 14.80% of men are current smokers but only 10.30% of women.
