HOW MUCH NICOTINE DO YOU GET FROM VAPING?

Between all the flavours, types of vaping devices and of course the terminology it’s easy to get a bit lost, especially for someone new to the vaping world.

An important thing for first-time vapers to understand is nicotine strengths and how much of it you get from vaping. Different people prefer different strengths, so you need to find the one that suits you.

Vapes heat nicotine, which is extracted from tobacco, and flavorings to create an aerosol that you inhale. As most vapes contain nicotine, it can sometimes be used to replace cigarettes but with fewer of the harmful toxicants* found in traditional cigarettes.

*Vaping is not risk-free and contains nicotine, an addictive substance.

The concentration of nicotine in an eLiquid is measured in milligrams of nicotine per millilitre of eLiquid. This is usually shown as ‘mg’, and it’s this number you’ll see on all our packaging. The higher the number, the greater the nicotine strength.

The difference in nicotine levels between vapes and cigarettes comes down to your smoking habits, the strength of cigarettes and how many you smoke.

So, if you’re a heavy smoker who is switching to vaping, you may prefer a vaping option with a higher nicotine strength. If you a first-time nicotine user, you can start with a lower strength, or nicotine-free option, and then work up or down depending on which strength you end up preferring.

Vuse also offers nicotine salts. Nicotine exists in a salt form. However, for eLiquids to produce vapour with a high enough amount of nicotine salts, certain ingredients need to be added to it to create the nicotine salt within the vapour. Many consumers prefer this as it’s closer to the satisfaction received from cigarettes. Our eLliquids with nicotine salts may also have a more stable shelf life than other e-liquids.

18mg – the hightest nicotine strength available from Vuse. This is suited to experienced adult smokers and vapers. Make sure you have the right device to suit your nicotine strength or get in touch with our vape experts for any guidance.

• 6mg, 5mg & 3mg – We also provide lower nicotine strengths to allow you to reduce your nicotine consumption over time.
• 1.6mg – it’s the option that’s still got a hint of nicotine if that’s what you fancy alongside your favourite flavour.
• 0mg - If you just want to enjoy our flavours on their own then our nicotine-free 0mg/ml (Zero range) lets you do just that.

Now that you know how to interpret the numbers on an eLiquid bottle, we hope you’ll be able to find the right Vuse flavour for you.

Nicotine has been used for decades in licensed medicinal products with few significant adverse effects and such products have been deemed safe enough for over-the-counter sale without a prescription in many countries.

However, nicotine is a highly addictive substance and may be hazardous to your health. Rapid oral ingestion or dermal absorption of nicotine in high amounts is acutely toxic and may be life-threatening, particularly for children. Find out more about is vaping addictive here.
