TSANZ takes firm stand against e-cigarettes
A new position statement says any claims for smoking cessation should be assessed by the TGA
No specific e-cigarette product can be recommended as effective or safe for smoking cessation, according to a position statement developed by the peak body for Australian respiratory physicians.
Evidence is lacking on whether e-cigarettes are effective in helping people quit smoking and they should not be used first-line, the Thoracic Society of Australia and New Zealand (TSANZ) says.
