Factors associated with using disposable versus non-disposable electronic cigarettes among adults in the U.S. and Israel: a cross-sectional study with policy implications
U.S. and Israeli adults who use disposable versus non-disposable e-cigarettes differ, highlighting the importance of public health strategies tailored to the unique needs of each country. The high levels of cannabis or cannabinoid-containing e-liquid use among participants who use non-disposable e-cigarettes suggest the need for stricter regulation and enforcement of non-disposable devices and e-liquids in both countries. Findings also suggest that banning sweet flavored e-cigarettes will support the effort in reduction of disposable e-cigarette use in the U.S.
