FIP HOLDING STATEMENT ON THE USE OF ELECTRONIC CIGARETTES: The health and economic impact of e-cigarette use, and the contribution of the pharmacy workforce to its elimination (2023)

In light of the increasing use of e-cigarettes, particularly among young people, and concerns around the safety of these products, the FIP Bureau has issued a Holding Statement on the health and economic impact of e-cigarette use, and the contribution of the pharmacy workforce to its elimination.

The statement has been developed by FIP staff and the co-chairs of FIP’s policy committee on tobacco cessation, in collaboration with Bureau members and in consultation with the World Health Organization (WHO).
