What is Meant By “Other Tobacco Products,” or OTPs?

1. Snus

Snus are small pouches with tobacco in them. Snus is created for smokers to use when they cannot smoke cigarettes.

2. Orbs

Orbs look like small dgragees that resemble Tic Tacs. Time of their action is about 15 minutes. One pellet has 1 milligram of nicotine, which equals to one cigarette. Experts say that a kid may die from eating 10 of the pellets.

3. Sticks

Tobacco sticks do resemble ordinary toothpicks and dissolve within 10 minutes in the mouth. One tobacco stick contains three times the nicotine of one cigarette.

4. Strips

Strips resemble breath mint strips. They do dissolve three minutes in the mouth. One strip contains less nicotine than one cigarette.
