VAPING or the use of e-cigarettes has been proven to be more effective in helping people drop their smoking habit, compared to merely using patches and gums, based on a study published by Cochrane, an international nonprofit organization.

According to a Cochrane report, titled 'Electronic cigarettes for smoking cessation,' there was high certainty evidence that smokers were more likely to stop smoking for at least six months, using nicotine e-cigarettes versus using nicotine replacement therapies. The latest Cochrane review showed evidence that nicotine e-cigarettes led to higher quit rates than e-cigarettes without nicotine, which are also known as no-stop-smoking intervention.
