Summary

The goal of this study is to assess the effects of nicotine concentration and its interplay with pH on sensory experience, product appeal, and abuse liability of NPs among young adults NP users.

Primary objective is to assess the effect of variation in nicotine concentration in nicotine pouches (NPs) and its interaction effect with pH level on three proximal outcomes of relevance to regulation: (1) sensory experience, (2) product appeal, and (3) abuse liability of NPs.
