越来越多的美国人将寻求通过使用新型尼古丁输送产品来满足尼古丁成瘾，这些产品不含使香烟如此致命的几种毒素。走在前列的是烟草工业的加热烟草衍生物而不是燃烧烟草的设备，以及制药工业的尼古丁替代产品，尼古丁口香糖和尼古丁贴片现在可以在柜台买到。表面上看，这两个行业有着截然相反的目标，烟草业努力维持尼古丁成瘾，而制药行业则致力于戒烟。然而，一系列技术、经济、政治、监管和社会的发展预示着一场奇怪的竞争，这些行业将争夺数十亿美元的长期尼古丁维持市场的份额。监管选择从鼓励竞争到禁止所有尼古丁输送设备。更现实的做法是不鼓励使用最危险的产品，同时让成年人随时可以获得危险性较小的产品。
In increasing numbers, Americans will seek to satisfy nicotine addictions through the use of novel nicotine-delivery products devoid of several of the poisons that make cigarettes so deadly. In the vanguard are tobacco industry devices that heat tobacco derivatives rather than burn tobacco, and pharmaceutical industry nicotine-replacement products, with nicotine gum and the patch now available over the counter. Ostensibly, these 2 industries have diametrically opposed objectives, the tobacco industry striving to sustain nicotine addictions, the pharmaceutical industry to end them. However, a series of technological, economic, political, regulatory, and social developments augurs a strange-bedfellows competition in which these industries will vie for shares of a new multibillion dollar long-term nicotine-maintenance market. Regulatory options range from encouraging competition to banning all nicotine-delivery devices. A more realistic approach discourages use of the most dangerous products, while making less hazardous products readily available to adults.
