電子煙概論

電子煙作為新興菸品之一，在年輕人之中風行，各國也將電子煙列為菸害防治的重要議題。近年研究顯示，電子煙的霧化器，以及煙油中的尼古丁、丙二醇、調味劑等成分，各有其帶來的健康問題。至於電子煙是否對於「戒菸」有所幫助，近幾年無論是臨床試驗或系統性文獻回顧，還未能提出一致的結論。有的文獻發現年輕學子首次接觸電子煙之後，轉而使用紙菸的比率顯著地比未曾接觸過電子煙的比率高；然而也有研究指出，以電子煙作為戒菸的工具，效果不比尼古丁替代療法來得差。但是因為現今電子煙發展快速，未有公定的標準，各種成分的濃度不一，電子煙與毒品的範疇及界線也十分模糊。我國政府已預定修訂《菸害防制法》，禁止製造、輸入、販賣、展示電子煙。

Electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) are popular among young people as one of the emerging smoking products in the last few years. Many countries have listed e-cigarettes as an important issue in the prevention and control of tobacco hazards. Recent studies have shown that the atomizers as well as the components in the tobacco oil - nicotine, propylene glycol, flavoring agents, etc., cause different health problems. Some e-cigarettes even contain recreational drugs. As for whether e-cigarettes are helpful for smoking cessation, clinical trials or recent systematic reviews have not yet reached a consistent conclusion. Some literatures found that young students who have been exposed to e-cigarettes have a significantly higher rate of switching to conventional cigarettes than those who have not. However, other studies pointed out that using e-cigarettes as a smoking cessation approach is not worse than nicotine replacement therapy. Because of the fast developing speed of e-cigarettes, no standards have yet been established: the concentrations of ingredients vary; the boundary of e-cigarettes and recreational drugs is rather vague. Our government has scheduled to amend the ＂Tobacco Hazards Prevention Act＂ to prohibit the manufacture, import, sale, and display of e-cigarettes.
