Summary

E-cigarettes have emerged as an effective strategy for replacing cigarettes among smokers from the general population, but there is a dearth of studies investigating their utility in replacing cigarettes among smokers with opioid use disorder (OUD). This study aims to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of implementing a cigarette harm reduction intervention involving e-cigarettes in office-based buprenorphine clinics.
