Good Conversion Practices for PMI’s Smoke-free Products

PMI offers a variety of high-quality, scientifically substantiated smoke-free products that are a much better choice than continuing to smoke cigarettes. Our vision is that one day, our smoke-free products will completely replace cigarettes.

  1. Cigarette smoking causes serious diseases and is addictive. Without a doubt, the best decision any smoker can make is to completely stop using tobacco and nicotine.
  2. People under the age of 18 are not recommended to use tobacco or other nicotine products in any form.
  3. PMI smoke-free products are intended for adult smokers who otherwise smoke or use other nicotine products.
  4. PMI smoke-free products are not intended for adults who have never used tobacco or nicotine products, or who have quit using tobacco or nicotine products. Our smoke-free products are not a smoking cessation aid and are not designed to help people quit smoking.
  5. PMI smoke-free products are not risk-free and contain nicotine, which is addictive. Switching to a smoke-free product is a better choice than continuing to smoke.
  6. We support adult smokers on their journey to fully switching to smoke-free products through education and guidance.
  7. To experience the benefits of smoke-free products, adult smokers should use only these products and completely stop smoking cigarettes.
  8. We provide users with safety information related to our smoke-free products.

Nicotine

  • VEEV pods used with VEEV devices contain nicotine, which is addictive.
  • VEEV devices are not risk-free. The best way to reduce health risks related to tobacco is to completely stop using tobacco and nicotine.
  • Some users of nicotine products have reported abdominal pain, chest pain, choking sensation, coughing, difficulty breathing, dizziness, dry mouth, dry throat, gingivitis, headache, discomfort, nasal congestion, nausea, mouth irritation, palpitations, throat irritation, and vomiting.
  • Nicotine-releasing products should not be used by people who have or are at risk of heart disease, diabetics, or epileptics.
  • Nicotine-containing products should not be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or think you might be pregnant, you should completely stop using tobacco and nicotine.
  • Quitting smoking or switching to VEEV or other nicotine-containing products may require dosage adjustments of certain medications (e.g., theophylline, clozapine, ropinirole).
  • If you have questions about whether you should use VEEV given your health condition, consult a doctor.

Exclusive Use

  • Use VEEV ONE only with VEEV ONE pods specifically designed for VEEV ONE. Never use VEEV ONE with other pods. This may cause injury.
  • Do not modify or attempt to refill the VEEV device or VEEV ONE pods in any way, nor add any substances to the VEEV device or VEEV ONE pods. This may cause injury.
  • Do not use the VEEV device or VEEV ONE pods if they appear damaged, tampered with, broken, or leaking.

Before using the product, users should read the safety warnings and instructions, which contain important safety information about product use.

Battery Life

VEEV ONE devices contain a lithium-ion battery. The lithium-ion battery is a consumable component that degrades depending on usage and age. This is a natural process common to all rechargeable lithium-ion batteries. As the battery ages, the active ingredients inside become less capable of holding energy, resulting in a permanent reduction in maximum capacity and usable energy. Additionally, the active ingredients become less efficient at delivering energy, which reduces the battery’s ability to power electronic device components. As a result, consumption duration may seem shorter or reduced after charging, and consecutive use may be shorter or absent, along with other device functions.

The battery is a chemical system that requires a specific temperature range during charging and discharging to operate optimally and minimize capacity degradation over its lifespan. Although your device has a defined operating range, operating at the extremes of this range will degrade the battery faster. Your device comes with customized software to control charging parameters to extend its lifespan. These algorithms can support battery longevity but cannot fully mitigate the normal aging mechanisms of lithium batteries. Operating your device at high or low temperatures will accelerate natural battery degradation. Even if you don’t use your device, batteries contain chemical systems that degrade over time. To slow down battery degradation, we recommend charging your device at the recommended temperature and avoiding leaving the battery empty for extended periods.

How do you measure VEEV ONE emissions, which you claim are reduced by 99% compared to cigarette smoke?

We state that VEEV ONE emits on average 99% lower levels of harmful substances compared to cigarettes. 

Important note: This does not necessarily mean a 99% risk reduction. VEEV ONE is not risk-free.

* Reductions in levels of the 9 harmful chemicals the World Health Organization recommends to reduce in cigarette smoke, which do not include nicotine.
