Is the use of e-cigarettes for smoking cessation associated with alcohol consumption? A population-level survey of successful quitters in England.

CONCLUSIONS: Recent ex-smokers who used e-cigarettes to help them quit consumed around two more units of alcohol each week than those who quit unaided, but their alcohol consumption was similar to those who quit with NRT. Data on differences in high-risk drinking and attempts to cut down alcohol consumption among high-risk drinkers were inconclusive.
