Summary

With the advent of restrictions on public smoking, the tobacco industry has introduced a variety of novel smokeless tobacco products (NSTP) to allow continued tobacco use. These products typically have lower tobacco-specific nitrosamines, carcinogens and nicotine than conventional smokeless products out on the market. No studies have compared the effects of NSTP and medicinal nicotine products (MNP) in smokeless tobacco users and whether some of the NSTP products may serve as a cessation tool for smokeless tobacco users. Our hypothesis is that the effects from these products will be directly related to their nicotine content and sensory effects. Products that produce greater effects on outcome measures may serve as potential cessation tools.
