E-cigarette use is positively associated with both making a quit attempt and quit success, and those using flavored e-cigarettes are more likely to successfully quit smoking, with no statistically significant differences between use of menthol or mint flavored e-cigarettes versus use of other non-tobacco flavored products. This suggests that the potential for e-cigarettes to help people who currently smoke quit could be maintained with the availability of menthol or mint flavored e-cigarettes, even if other non-tobacco flavored products, which are associated with e-cigarette use among youth, were removed from the market.
