The purpose of this study is to better understand tobacco outcomes using a commonly prescribed stop smoking medication (varenicline) and financial incentives for adults who also use cannabis. Varenicline is not FDA approved for e-cigarette cessation, but is FDA approved for cigarette cessation. We are also interested in how cannabis/marijuana and tobacco interact during a tobacco quit attempt. All participants will receive e-cigarette cessation treatment for 12 weeks. To qualify, participants must be between the ages of 18-40 and use both tobacco and cannabis. Participants do not need to be interested in quitting cannabis to qualify. This study is being conducted at two sites: the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston, SC and Behavioral Health Services in Pickens, SC.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of varenicline (sometimes known as Chantix) compared to placebo (an inactive substance) for the treatment of cigarettes and cannabis (marijuana). Varenicline is not FDA approved for the combination treatment of cigarette abstinence and cannabis reduction or abstinence. All participants will also receive counseling and access to online treatment modules during a quit attempt for cigarettes and a reduction attempt for cannabis. This study is being conducted by the Medical University of South Carolina. All procedures are conducted remotely; therefore, no in-person visits are needed.
To qualify, participants must be 18 or older, live in South Carolina, use cigarettes and cannabis, and are interested in quitting cigarettes and reducing cannabis.
The goal of this project is to better understand the relationship between tobacco/nicotine and cannabis using behavioral economics during a tobacco/nicotine quit attempt.

Participants do not need to be interested in quitting cannabis/marijuana to qualify. This study is being conducted by the Medical University of South Carolina.
