With minimal health risks compared to tobacco smoking, PNVs face only one real barrier to use smokers willingness to switch. But, even on this front, the devices have had considerable success, with PNV use increasing exponentially in the last few years.

The use of nicotine in non combustible forms like smokeless tobacco, or PNV, would enable millions of current smokers to reduce considerably the harm that their nicotine consumption is doing to their health. In Sweden, the widespread use of snus a smokeless tobacco product with a lower concentration of carcinogenic nitrosamines has contributed to a dramatic decline in the incidence of lung cancer, to the world s lowest levels.
