Nicotrol Nicotine

How do the vapors from the e-cigarette differ from the nicotrol inhaler?

Is it the same since both vapors derive from nicotine?

The eclipse cigarette is basically vaporizing the tobacco. It heats that tobacco to a temperature that is high enough to vaporize it and thus give the user some taste of tobacco as well as some amount of the drug nicotine as well. The drawback to vaporization is that heat is still involved and so as a result there will be some amount of smoke which is primarily inhaled by the consumer. Although there is substantially less smoke given off by the Eclipse cigarette, there is still some. With that smoke comes some tar as well as other compounds which are considered to be unhealthy, such as carbon monoxide.

The inhaler is a nebulized mist delivery system which does not involve heat of any kind. Therefore the drug, nicotine is added to the liquid suspension and once the consumer inhales it, they are only getting that unchanged drug with no tar or other components which will be found in smoke.

The Eclipse cigarette is definitely much less risky than traditional cigarettes as the amount of tar and nicotine and other harmful components is greatly reduced, but it is still not considered to be less risky or even comparable in risk to an inhaler.

EDIT: I am unsure as to what someone was talking about when they stated that the Eclipse Cigarette has not gained FDA approval for market. For starters, the Eclipse has been and still is available for purchase. There was a brief period of time when it was pulled off of the shelves for some legal issues, but those issues were dealt with and they were brought back. Up until this year the FDA did not even have anything to do with cigarettes, as this was all handled via the BATF (Bur. of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms). Now that the FDA has control, it is still not the same as being regulated as a drug (at least not yet). In a nutshell, you just cannot compare the two because one is a cigarette (even if it is much less risky than traditional cigarettes) and the other is an OTC smoking detterent medication, which is regulated as a drug. Both of these products fall under different regulations and thus different parts of the CFR.

Oh and there is tobacco in the Eclipse Cigarette. I tested plenty of them and have actually seen the inside of them and how they work, etc. and I can assure you that tobacco is inside the product. If there were not, then it would not have fallen under BATF's domain, as it would have been an OTC drug and fallen under the FDA's domain.
