Strength ladder
0% = flavor only. 2% = light. 3% = standard daily. 5% = stronger, for adults coming from high-strength disposables.
Who should avoid nicotine
Anyone under 21, pregnant people, and individuals advised by a clinician to avoid nicotine should not use nicotine products.
Expert opinion
Strength selection should follow prior habit and a plan to step down — not maximum available milligrams.
