New puff-like disposable electronic cigarettes: expert consensus on their regulation

New disposable electronic cigarettes have arrived on the Swiss market since 2020. Our study, conducted according to the three steps of the Delphi fast-track approach developed at Unisanté, obtained a consensual agreement among French-speaking Switzerland experts on the regulation of these products. Ideally, the panel of experts recommends a sales ban of the product. If this is not possible, a number of aspects should be strictly regulated: taxation, product composition and marketing, and sales and consumption restrictions. These regulations should go further than the current European directive and the future Swiss law. The conclusions will be useful to support and guide political decision making from a public health and environmental perspective.
