peer reviewed ; Because of the devastating health effect of chronic burned tobacco inhalation, smoking cessation is a public health priority. After a short review of the validated pharmacological tools for smoking cessation we have analysed the clinical data obtained with the increasingly popular e-cigarette as an aid to help current smokers to quit.

They recommend trying e-cigarette when validated pharmacological tools have failed in making patients abstinent, on the basis that e-cigarette is strongly assumed to be less toxic and may still help reducing the amount of smoked cigarettes.
