Key Points

Question  What methods are people using to stop smoking in England and to what extent are they associated with quit success?

Findings  This survey study including 25 094 smokers aged at least 16 years found that e-cigarettes were both the most commonly used cessation aid (used in 40.2% of quit attempts in 2023-2024) and associated with the highest odds of successful cessation. By contrast, other aids found to be associated with increased odds of success in quitting smoking were used in less than 5% of quit attempts.
