Dual Use of E-cigarettes and Cigarettes may Hamper Quitting.
A study found that dual users of electronic and traditional cigarettes may continue to smoke in the long term.

Researchers from George Washington University in the United States have found that individuals who both use e-cigarettes and smoke tobacco may continue smoking in the long run.


Over a period of six years, they conducted research on people and found that 42% had actually quit smoking a long time ago and continued to use e-cigarettes, while 15% planned to continue using both e-cigarettes and traditional cigarettes. Only 10% of participants used both e-cigarettes and smoked cigarettes simultaneously.


Both e-cigarettes and conventional cigarettes pose significant health risks and contain addictive nicotine. Ideally, individuals should attempt to quit both at the same time.
