2017年和2018年，明尼苏达州的明尼阿波利斯、圣保罗、德卢斯和猎鹰高地是首批将薄荷烟限制在成人商店销售的美国城市。这项研究调查了政策实施后这些产品的可得性和营销方面的变化。零售店审计在政策实施前后约2个月进行。烟草零售商店（n=299）从明尼阿波利斯、圣保罗、德卢斯和猎鹰高地的烟草许可名单中抽样，以及六个没有薄荷政策的比较城市。评估了薄荷烟草的存在，以及每家商店内部和外部烟草广告和促销的数量。大多数政策干预商店（杂货店、便利店和药店）是合规的（明尼阿波利斯，84.4%；德卢斯，97.5%；圣保罗和猎鹰高地，100.0%），不销售薄荷烟草。相比之下，所有比较城市商店均可购买到薄荷烟，政策实施后大多数烟草商店和酒类商店（96.0%）获得豁免。明尼阿波利斯的两家便利店在室内增加了烟草商店，允许他们继续销售薄荷烟草。政策实施后，明尼阿波利斯、圣保罗和德卢斯门店内部和德卢斯门店外部的薄荷烟营销显著减少（p<0.001）。调查结果显示了很高的遵守率，表明销售限制可以显著减少薄荷烟草的可得性。然而，政策遵守方面的挑战强调了继续监测和执法行动的必要性。
In 2017 and 2018, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Duluth and Falcon Heights, Minnesota were among the first US cities to restrict the sale of menthol tobacco to adult-only stores. The study examined changes in the availability and marketing of these products following policy implementation. Retail store audits were conducted approximately 2 months pre-policy and post-policy implementation. Tobacco retail stores (n=299) were sampled from tobacco licensing lists in Minneapolis, St. Paul, Duluth and Falcon Heights, as well as six comparison cities without menthol policies. The presence of menthol tobacco was assessed, along with the number of interior and exterior tobacco ads and promotions at each store. The majority of policy intervention stores (grocery, convenience stores and pharmacies) were compliant (Minneapolis, 84.4%; Duluth, 97.5%; and St. Paul and Falcon Heights, 100.0%) and did not sell menthol tobacco. In contrast, menthol tobacco was available in all comparison city stores, and most (96.0%) exempted tobacco shops and liquor stores post-policy implementation. Two Minneapolis convenience stores added interior tobacco shops, allowing them to continue selling menthol tobacco. Significant decreases in menthol tobacco marketing post-policy were observed in the stores’ interior in Minneapolis, St. Paul and Duluth (p<0.001) and on the stores’ exterior in Duluth (p=0.023). Findings demonstrate high rates of compliance, indicating that sales restrictions can significantly reduce the availability of menthol tobacco. However, challenges to policy adherence underscore the need for continued monitoring and enforcement action.
