Overview

This perspective calls for harmonized e-cigarette regulations, suggesting effective policies in public health for youth protection.

Key Points

  • The lack of cohesive regulation threatens public health, particularly for youth who are increasingly using e-cigarettes.
  • Policy responses vary widely across Latin America, with mixed enforcement of regulations impacting tobacco control gains.
  • Comprehensive measures such as taxation and advertising bans can mitigate the unregulated epidemic of electronic cigarettes.
  • A coordinated, evidence-based framework integrating ENDS-specific policies is crucial for safeguarding health in the region.
