In recent years, new studies have surged young children’s nicotine pouches. Nationwide Children’s Abigail Wexner Research Institute’s Institute of Institute and Policy Center and Central OHIO POISON Center analyzed the call to the US Dok Center and 763%of children under 6 years of age from 2020 to 2023 Nicotine pouch intake has increased.
Nicotine pouches are more likely to be more serious than other nicotine products such as chewing gum/lines, electronic liquids, powder/granules and purification/capsules/capsules.
Nicotine pouches, which are nicotine powder and placed in their mouths, have not been tracked in the nation’s toxic center data between 2020 and 2023. But between 2020 and 2023 (the most recent data from the study), the unintended speed of nicotine pouches by young children increased rapidly.
Hannah Hays, a research and medical officer of Central OHIO POISON Center, said, “Nicotine pouches are a serious and growing toxic consumption of nicotine pouches.
“The rapid increase in the number of nicotine pouches and the severity of the severity of the nicotine pouch reminds us of public health problems in the changing nicotine product market. This should increase our efforts to continue to monitor and prevent nicotine.”
Open pediatrics, We also surveyed other nicotine products and formulations. Researchers have examined nearly 135,000 cases of nicotine intake among children under 6 years of age reported to the US Dok Center from 2010 to 2023. Most of the intake occurred at home and was associated with children under 2 years of age. Although most of the exposure did not affect or affect, there were 39 major medical results and two deaths.
The overall percentage of all nicotine intake increased by 59% from 2010 to 2015 before decreased by 34% from 2015 to 2023, which was mainly led by the rate of intake of liquid nicotine and nicotine solid formulations such as tablets, capsules and capcles. Liquid nicotine’s intake speed increased by 450% from 2010 to 2015, and then decreased 45% from 2015 to 2023.
“This sudden change in the interest rate trend of liquid nicotine intake is 2015 Child Nicotine Addiction Prevention ActIt demanded a strong packaging for the child of the liquid nicotine. However, despite this improvement, the intake speed of liquid nicotine was higher than the speed of other nicotine products, which clearly indicates that there is an additional opportunity.
Dr. Smith said, “Many nicotine products are sold in a tasty and attractive packaging for young children.” If you prohibit taste from all nicotine products, it reduces the unintentional intentions of young children and interferes with the use of teenagers. “
Researchers also shared some safety tips for young children and caregivers. The safest choice is to keep all nicotine products out of the house. If you choose to leave it at home, you can reduce the risk by performing the following steps:
- Save nicotine products safely. If these products are kept at home, they can be stored far from the food and can be applied to locked cabinets, drawers or boxes. It is not recommended to keep this product in a wallet or backpack, and it is not recommended when living in a house or visiting home, but to keep it in this place, you cannot drop the wallet/backpack up and keep it. Ask a caregiver around your child to do the same at home.
- Do not use these products in front of children. It is helpful not to use these products in front of your child. Especially if it’s packed to look like a snack.
- Store the National Poison Help Line Number (1-800-222-1222) on your phone and post it in the visible place of your home. Poison Help Line offers free advice from experts for 24 hours a day and 7 days a week.
The data on this study was obtained from the National Poison Data System (NPDS), which is maintained in the US Dok Center. The Dok Center receives a phone call from the National Poison Help Line (1-800-222-1222) and documented information about exposure reported on the NPD.
