Effective Date: October 2026

1. No Medical Advice

The information, content, and materials available on the Vapeslane website vapeslane.co.uk (the "Site"), including but not limited to text, graphics, images, product descriptions, blog posts, and customer reviews, are provided for general informational and educational purposes only.

None of the information provided on this Site should be construed as medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Vapeslane is not a healthcare provider, and the products sold on this Site are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease, illness, or medical condition.

2. Nicotine and Addiction

Many of the products sold on this Site contain nicotine. Nicotine is a highly addictive and toxic substance. It can increase your heart rate and blood pressure, cause dizziness, nausea, and stomach pain, and can be fatal if inhaled or ingested in large quantities.

Vaping products are strictly intended for use by adult smokers and existing vapers aged 18 or over. If you do not currently smoke or use nicotine products, we strongly advise you not to start using vaping products.

3. Not a Smoking Cessation Product

Unless explicitly stated and officially approved by a regulatory medical body (such as the MHRA in the UK), the electronic cigarettes, e-liquids, and related vaping products sold on this Site are not smoking cessation products. They have not been evaluated or approved as tools to help you quit smoking. If you are looking to quit smoking, you should consult with a qualified healthcare professional or contact your local NHS Stop Smoking Service to discuss approved medicinal options and support programs.

4. Potential Health Risks

The long-term health effects of using electronic cigarettes and vaping e-liquids are not yet fully known or understood by the scientific and medical communities. By purchasing and using products from Vapeslane, you acknowledge and accept that you do so entirely at your own risk.

You should be aware that inhaling vaporized e-liquids exposes you to chemicals and potential toxins. E-liquids contain ingredients such as Propylene Glycol (PG), Vegetable Glycerin (VG), flavorings, and often nicotine. Some individuals may experience allergic reactions or sensitivities to these ingredients (particularly PG). If you experience any adverse effects, such as a rash, swelling, difficulty breathing, or severe coughing, you should stop using the product immediately and seek medical attention.

5. Vulnerable Groups (Pregnancy and Breastfeeding)

Vaping products and nicotine-containing substances must not be used by specific vulnerable groups. You must NOT use these products if you are:

  • Pregnant or planning to become pregnant. Nicotine crosses the placenta and can harm fetal development.
  • Breastfeeding, as nicotine can be passed to the infant through breast milk.

6. Pre-existing Medical Conditions

You should consult your doctor before using any vaping products, especially if you have, suspect you have, or have a family history of any pre-existing medical conditions, including but not limited to:

  • Heart disease, angina, or irregular heartbeats.
  • High blood pressure.
  • Diabetes.
  • Asthma, COPD, or other respiratory/lung conditions.
  • Liver or kidney disease.
  • Stomach ulcers.
  • Hyperthyroidism or pheochromocytoma.

7. Medical Emergencies and Poisoning

E-liquids (especially those containing nicotine) are toxic if swallowed or if they come into prolonged contact with the skin. Keep all vaping products, devices, and e-liquids out of the reach of children and pets at all times.

If e-liquid is swallowed, or if you suspect a child or pet has ingested e-liquid, seek immediate medical attention: call 999 in an emergency, or call NHS 111 for urgent advice. Do not induce vomiting unless instructed to do so by a medical professional. If e-liquid comes into contact with your skin or eyes, wash thoroughly with plenty of water and seek medical advice if irritation persists.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Vapeslane, its directors, employees, affiliates, and agents disclaim any liability for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising out of or in any way connected with your use of the products sold on this Site or your reliance on any information provided on the Site regarding health and medical matters. You assume full responsibility for your health and safety when using our products.
