Official title

Evaluation of Cessation Preferences of Menthol Smokers

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

The primary aim of this study is to determine menthol smokers' perception, product preference, and pattern of use across six products including, mint-flavored nicotine gum; non-flavored nicotine gum; mentholated nicotine inhaler; and non-menthol nicotine inhaler. Participants will undergo an orientation and baseline assessment followed by a 2-week product sampling phase. At the end of the 2 weeks of sampling, subjects will select a product to use during the following 2-week smoking cessation phase. This 2-week abstinence phase is followed by one week of abrupt withdrawal of the product. This study design was successfully used in a study we conducted that examined the smokers' preference for a variety or oral tobacco products.
