Abstract

The authors for this article represent public health, clinical paediatrics, medical sociology, and psychology, and together present an argument for why those in the UK should be concerned about the rise in vaping and vaping-associated nicotine dependence in those under the age of 18. The piece draws together the latest evidence in this area and calls for dedicated services for those who are nicotine dependent as a result of their vape usage, and who are currently overlooked.
