Young adult dual combusted cigarette and e-cigarette users ’ anticipated responses to a nicotine reduction policy and menthol ban in combusted cigarettes

The Family Smoking Prevention Tobacco Control Act (FSPTCA) provided the United States (U.S.) Food and Drug Administration (FDA) with regulatory authority over the manufacture, marketing, and distribution of combusted cigarettes (CC) (U.S. Congress, 2009). The FDA is authorized to reduce the maximum allowable nicotine content in CC. Reducing nicotine in CC to a level below that which sustains dependence could help smokers to reduce smoking or quit, and decrease the likelihood of dependence in smokers (Benowitz and Henningfield, 1994; Donny et al., 2017).
