First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 16, 2026 · Updated 33 times

Summary

This study looks at how making cigarettes very low in nicotine and changing prices of e-cigarettes and illegal cigarettes might influence what smokers buy. About 70 adult smokers will use a pretend online store to see how they spend their money. The goal is to understand if these rules could reduce smoking without pushing people to illegal products.
