Key Points ENDS are a rapidly emerging and diversified product class. ENDS use among youth and young adults has become a public health concern. ENDS are now the most commonly used nicotine product among youth, surpassing conventional cigarettes in 2014. The use of products containing nicotine poses dangers to youth, pregnant women, and fetuses. ENDS aerosol is not harmless. ENDS are marketed by promoting flavors and using a wide variety of media channels and approaches that have been used in the past for marketing conventional tobacco products to youth and young adults. Action can be taken at the national, state, local, tribal, and territorial levels to address ENDS use among youth and young adults.
