What Are Smoke-Free Alternative Products That Contain Nicotine?

Currently, there are various smoke-free alternative tobacco products available that contain nicotine and can be an option for adult smokers who want to switch and continue using nicotine products. Keep in mind that switching to smoke-free alternative products does not mean you are risk-free. Smoke-free alternative products are not designed as smoking cessation aids and still contain nicotine which can cause addiction.

The IQOS ILUMA™ tobacco heating device as a smoke-free alternative used with TEREA™ tobacco sticks that contained nicotine. Designed with TEREA SMARTCORE STICKS™ technology, TEREA™ tobacco sticks use a metal heating element coated with stainless steel to heat the tobacco from the inside. The IQOS ILUMA™ device heats TEREA™ tobacco sticks without a combustion process so it does not produce smoke, but vapor (aerosol) and 95% lower levels of harmful chemicals compared to cigarette smoke.*

Important information: This does not necessarily equal a 95% reduction in risk. IQOS ILUMA™ is not risk-free.

* “95% less” represents the average reduction in levels of the 9 chemicals recommended for reduction in cigarette smoke by the World Health Organization, which do not include nicotine. See Important Information on IQOS.com.

There are various flavors of TEREA™ tobacco sticks that you can choose according to your preferences, starting from classic tobacco, fresh tobacco, and tobacco with clove.

Apart from the IQOS tobacco heating device, other smoke-free alternative products containing nicotine are:

  • Electronic cigarettes, or vapes, are a smoke-free alternative that work by heating e-liquid, which mostly contains nicotine. By not burning tobacco, vapes generally do not produce tobacco smoke, but vapor or aerosol resulting from heating the e-liquid.
  • Nicotine Pouches, are one of the smoke-free alternative products on the market. Adult nicotine users can use nicotine pouches by slipping them between their gums and lips for a nicotine experience. Unlike tobacco heating devices, nicotine pouches contain no tobacco at all. The nicotine content in nicotine bags is naturally extracted from tobacco leaves. Find out the complete information about the differences between heated tobacco devices and nicotine pouches here.
