I \u00e5ratal har fokus legat p\u00e5 f\u00f6rbud och restriktioner, men nu sker ett verkligt skifte. H\u00e4lsoministeriet har bekr\u00e4ftat att de samlar in data f\u00f6r att l\u00e4gga grunden f\u00f6r att reglera produkter med reducerad risk som vaping, nikotinp\u00e5sar och v\u00e4rme-inte-br\u00e4nn-apparater.

Det finns inte heller n\u00e5gon lag som specifikt behandlar vaping, vilket inneb\u00e4r att produkterna f\u00f6rblir i en gr\u00e5zon. Detta l\u00e4mnar b\u00e5de r\u00f6kare och de som \u00e4r intresserade av att byta utan klarhet eller riktning.
