Dramatically Reduce Smoking Rates by Lowering Nicotine in Combustible Cigarettes to Minimally or Non-addictive Levels

Cigarettes would contain less addictive nicotine making them less attractive to smokers under an “unprecedented” plan the Food and Drug Administration recently announced. Stripping cigarettes of all or most of their addictive power could lead 5 million adults to quit smoking within a year of the plan going into place and another 8 million to quit within five years. By 2100, the plan would prevent 33 million people who are now children or young adults from ever taking up tobacco, saving 8 million lives. For more information click here.
