Amidst increased e-cigarette use prevalence in the Philippines, IGTC conducted an online survey of Filipino adults who smoke to examine e-cigarette awareness, use patterns, and reasons for e-cigarette use.

Summarized in this fact sheet, the findings reflect a need for regulations to reduce prolonged use of e-cigarettes concurrently with cigarettes (known as dual use), and to increase access to approved cessation methods for people who smoke.
