Swedish snus as an alternative to smoking

Wednesday, 23 October, 2019 - 16:50 to 18:20
Main stage

Abstract

Swedish snus is held up as an example of a harm reduction tobacco product that has gained popularity and for which strong epidemiological evidence is available on relative harms to smoked tobacco. Yet it remains controversial and is banned in most of Europe. This presentation will analyse the evidence on how far it has or has not contributed to improvements in public health in countries where it is popular.
