Brief Summary

This study will evaluate exposure to "tar" and nicotine from two menthol cigarette products and provide a basis for comparing mouth-level exposure when smokers smoke the two cigarette products. Mouth-level exposure is the measurement of substance trapped in the cigarette butt after smoking the cigarette. Other purposes of this study are to:

• Compare the plasma cotinine, a byproduct of your body's processing of nicotine, levels found in users after smoking each of two different cigarettes.
• Find out the daily mouth-level exposure to cigarette "tar" and nicotine from smoking each of two different cigarettes in adult smokers.
• Determine if certain measures of nicotine dependence change based on the type of cigarette smoked
• To compare product liking and intent to use it again.

Conditions

Smoking

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Mouth-level exposure (MLE) "tar" per cigarette and MLE nicotine per cigarette.

  To compare the per cigarette MLE parameters (MLE "tar" per cigarette and MLE nicotine per cigarette) from smoking PD21864AA with those from smoking PD21864AB in adult smokers.
