Objective:
Nicotine pouches are an emerging tobacco product available in a variety of flavors. We examined flavor preferences among adults who used nicotine pouches in the past 30 days and identified characteristics associated with flavored-only versus unflavored-only use.
Methods:
The 2022-23 Tobacco Use Supplement to the Current Population Survey data collected in the U.S. (n = 495) were used.
Results:
Among adults who reported current nicotine pouch use, the prevalence was 81.51% for flavored-only use, 16.84% for unflavored-only use, and 1.66% for co-use. Mint was the most commonly used flavor (49.85%), followed by "other" (22.65%), menthol (7.82%), fruit (6.87%), and clove, spice, or herb (3.91%). Bivariate analysis indicated that use of flavored-only pouches was especially prevalent among 18-24 (89.93%) and 25-44 (85.73%) year-old adults, men (85.22%), non-Hispanic White (85.48%) and employed (86.10%) adults, as well as among those who formerly (88.78%), never (84.73%), or occasionally (80.74%) smoked. However, in model-assisted analysis, only sex and smoking status remained significant (p's < 0.05).
Conclusions:
These findings provide the first nationally representative estimates of flavored and unflavored pouch use among U.S. adults who reported current use of nicotine pouches in 2022-23. Future research should examine the role of flavored nicotine pouch use in tobacco use and cessation.

Cocaine can be administered via snorting, injection, or smoking. It primarily functions by blocking the reuptake of dopamine, resulting in a euphoric high characterized by an intense sensation of happiness and...
Drugs Acting on Autonomic Ganglia: Stimulants
Ganglionic stimulants activate NM nicotinic receptors in autonomic ganglia, falling into two categories: nicotine mimetics [e.g., lobeline, dimethylpiperazine, tetramethylammonium] and muscarinic receptor agonists [e.g., muscarine, methacholine]. The first category's action is rapid and blocked by nicotinic receptor antagonists, while the second category's action is delayed and blocked by atropine-like agents. Nicotine, an alkaloid, affects the heart rate by stimulating...
