The Side Effects of Vaping

Those who don’t smoke should not start vaping. Most vapes contain nicotine, which is highly addictive.

Some users report side effects of vaping such as

  • coughing, dry mouth and throat
  • mouth and throat irritation
  • shortness of breath
  • feeling sick

There may also be long-term effects of vaping that we’re not yet aware of.

E-liquid is specially designed for vapes that heat it to a certain temperature, creating the vapour. If mixed with another substance that doesn’t vaporise at that temperature, that liquid could be directly inhaled into the lungs.

TOP TIP: Only vape with designated e-liquids, and never put any other substance in your device.

Students from The Beacon College in Hereford highlight their concerns about the effects of vaping on Young People in a video they created.

Our message is simple – if you don’t smoke – don’t vape
