Abstract

Oral nicotine pouches are gaining popularity, yet national-level research on youth and young adult use is still needed. We examined characteristics of those who use oral nicotine pouches and trends in use over time in a sample of U.S. youth and young adults. Data were obtained from a weekly, national, online, continuous tracking survey of approximately 315 unique participants (aged 15-24) per week. Bivariate analyses were conducted on those surveyed December 2021 to May 2022 (n = 7,832) summarizing demographic and tobacco product use characteristics of those currently using oral nicotine pouches, those who had ever used oral nicotine pouches, but not currently, and those who never used pouches. From December 2021 to May 2022, 16% of participants ever used nicotine pouches and 12% currently used the product. Participants who currently used oral nicotine pouches were more likely to report being aged 21+, male, and lower income. Seventy-three percent of those who currently used pouches and 33% of those who ever, but not currently, used pouches reported current cigarette smoking. Results suggest that many young people who smoke cigarettes are concurrently using oral nicotine pouches. We also examined current and ever use in respondents surveyed between September 2020 and May 2022 to assess trends over the two-year period (n = 25,944) and findings indicate stable oral nicotine product use rates over time among adolescents and young adults. Appropriate regulation is needed so nicotine naïve individuals do not initiate use and those currently using tobacco do not use oral nicotine pouches concurrently with other products.

摘要

口服尼古丁袋越来越受欢迎,但仍需要针对青少年和青年使用情况的国家级研究。我们在美国青少年和青年样本中研究了使用口服尼古丁袋者的特征以及随时间推移的使用趋势。数据来自每周一次的全国性在线持续跟踪调查,每周约有315名独特参与者(年龄在15 - 24岁之间)。对2021年12月至2022年5月接受调查的人(n = 7832)进行了双变量分析,总结了当前使用口服尼古丁袋者、曾经使用过但目前未使用者以及从未使用过者的人口统计学和烟草产品使用特征。2021年12月至2022年5月,16%的参与者曾使用过尼古丁袋,12%的人目前正在使用该产品。当前使用口服尼古丁袋的参与者更有可能报告年龄在21岁及以上、男性且收入较低。当前使用袋子的人中有73%以及曾经使用过但目前未使用袋子的人中有33%报告目前吸烟。结果表明,许多吸烟的年轻人同时在使用口服尼古丁袋。我们还研究了2020年9月至2022年5月接受调查的受访者当前和曾经的使用情况,以评估两年期间的趋势(n = 25944),研究结果表明青少年和青年中口服尼古丁产品的使用率随时间保持稳定。需要进行适当监管,以使未接触过尼古丁的人不会开始使用,并且目前使用烟草的人不会同时将口服尼古丁袋与其他产品一起使用。
