The most frequent adverse effects to e-cigarettes and e-liquid reported to US poison control centers:

  • Ingestion exposure resulted in vomiting, nausea, drowsy, tachycardia, or agitation.[1]
  • Inhalation/nasal exposure resulted in nausea, vomiting, dizziness, agitation, or headache.[1]
  • Ocular exposure resulted in eye irritation or pain, red eye or conjunctivitis, blurred vision, headache, or corneal abrasion.[1]
  • Multiple routes of exposure resulted in eye irritation or pain, vomiting, red eye or conjunctivitis, nausea, or cough.[1]
  • Dermal exposure resulted in nausea, dizziness, vomiting, headache, or tachycardia.[1]
  • Most e-cigarette calls were a minor effect.[1] Severe outcomes were more than 2.5 times more frequent in children exposed to e-cigarettes and nicotine e-liquid than with traditional cigarettes.[2] The US National Poison Control database found that in 2015 most exposures were related to children under the age of 5.[3] From September 1, 2010 to December 31, 2014, 58% of e-cigarette calls to US poison control centers were related to children 5 years old or less.[1]

The initial symptoms are mainly due to stimulatory effects and include nausea and vomiting, excessive salivation, abdominal pain, pallor, sweating, hypertension, tachycardia, ataxia, tremor, headache, dizziness, muscle fasciculations, and seizures.[4]
