Youth Cigarette and Vape Use Down in Indiana, While Adult E-Cigarette Use Has Increased

The Indiana Department of Health released the 2023 Youth Risk Behavior Survey results, showing a decrease in combustible cigarette use among high school students. Daily smoking has declined significantly, but there's a slight increase in overall use requiring monitoring. E-cigarette usage is also decreasing, though daily use has risen slightly. The survey lacks data on other tobacco products. Policy makers should consider the impact on adult smokers using e-cigarettes as cessation aids. Restrictive measures may deter adult access to safer alternatives and risk a return to combustible cigarettes.
