The cartridges in therapeutic vapes come pre-filled with a specially formulated and tested nicotine liquid that slots into the top of the device.

With no buttons or settings, their operation is very straightforward – you simply inhale and exhale as you would with a cigarette, but without the associated harms.

Therapeutic vapes are designed to replicate the familiar hand-to-mouth motion, inhale/exhale action, and other behavioural elements of smoking traditional cigarettes, which can aid in easing the transition away from smoking by retaining the familiar experience during usually difficult times, such as on work breaks and having drinks with friends.

Therapeutic vapes cost significantly less than what you’ll pay for a pack of cigarettes.

Today, a pack of cigarettes can cost you about $40 per 20-pack, setting a pack-a-day smoker back over $14,500 every year.

In comparison, therapeutic vapes only cost about $10 to $13 per cartridge – which is roughly equal to around 20 cigarettes in terms of ‘puffs’ – helping a pack-a-day smoker save over $10,000 a year.
