Vaporizers, E-Cigarettes, and other Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems (ENDS)

These products use an “e-liquid” that may contain nicotine, as well as varying compositions of flavorings, propylene glycol, vegetable glycerin, and other ingredients. The liquid is heated to create an aerosol that the user inhales.
