Stopping smoking is one of the most favorable things you can do for your health. Around seven in ten smokers say they want to use a vape pen to quit smoking. If you've contemplated giving up, you're not alone. Vaping is a great way to get your salt fix and enjoy the benefits of vaping. The issue is that you may get a cough if youre vaping for the first time.  In this article, we'll go over some tips for how to hit a vape pen without coughing.

Can a Vape Cause a Cough?

The answer is yes for sure. Lets move on and you will know why.

What Is a Cough?

A cough is a sudden and often repetitive reflex action to clear your throat of an irritant, such as mucus or a foreign object. Many people think a cough is just a cough. However, there are different types of coughs, and each type can signal a different type of problem. A cough can also be a symptom of smoking, allergies, or a cold.

How Many New Vapers Cough When Vaping?

Vaping is a relatively new phenomenon that has been growing in popularity in recent years. Many people are curious about how many new vapers cough when vaping.

A survey of 600 vapers found that 58% of them coughed the first time they used an e-cigarette. However, after approximately ten weeks of acclimatization, 93% of vapers no longer coughed.

Is It Normal to Cough When Vaping?

It is common for new vapers to experience a cough when they first start vaping, but it is not a cause for concern. The “Propylene Glycol” (PG) content, which is one of the main ingredients in capacity, is one of the most likely causes of coughing while vaping. Its function is to carry the flavor while also providing a throat hit when inhaled.

Many people who vape do not think twice about it and enjoy the sensation and flavors. However, some people have reported feeling ill after vaping with symptoms of sore throat and shortness of breath in addition to coughing. These symptoms can be concerning, especially if you are new to vaping, but don't worry this is perfectly normal and usually goes away after a few days or weeks.
As the capacity heats up, the salt turns into a vapor that you can inhale; what you exhale from your lungs contains fewer harmful chemicals than cigarette smoke, making vaping a safer alternative to smoking.

Why Do You Cough When You Vape?

Tickly cough from vaping is a common occurrence for beginners. New vapers cough when vaping, which is a sign that they are not getting the salt they are looking for from their capacity. New vapers also tend to take more breaks between puffs, which can indicate that they are not getting the same satisfaction they were with their previous capacity.

The Top Five Reasons You Cough While Vaping

Your device is far too powerful for a complete amateur.

The first of the top three reasons you cough when you vape is that we often don't know what we're looking for when we first start out, so we put our trust in a professional, the person behind the desk, or a blog on the website. Well, you may occasionally find yourself with a device that has far more power than you require. You'll be setting yourself up for a coughing attack if you don't have the right information on the types of capacity to use. If you've already bought the equipment, try lowering the power to the lowest possible setting that the coil will accept.

The incorrect capacity/salt strength.

Likewise, the incorrect type of salt strength or capacity could be contributing to your coughing. If you have a high-powered vape pen and an capacity with a high concentration of salt, it will most likely be too much for you to manage. It's probably best to stick with a maximum salt strength of 6mg for a device with a high wattage output of 40w or more. Similarly, in addition to the salt strength, ensure that the PG/VG ratio is appropriate for your device. The higher the VG content of your capacity, the smoother it will be in high-powered devices. If you want the throat hit to be similar to smoking, use a lower-powered device and a higher PG-based capacity.

choose the right salt strength-6mg is low, 12 mg is medium, 18mg is high

You're vaping incorrectly.

The third reason you cough when vaping is that you're vaping incorrectly. It's a traditional vape shop scenario: a first-timer walks in, tries a sample, and starts coughing... why? It's because no one has ever told them that it's not the same as smoking a cigarette. When it comes to electronic cigarettes, there are two types of vaping techniques: direct-to-lung (DTL) and mouth-to-lung (MTL). As a beginner, you'll most likely want to stick with mouth-to-lung vaping because it is the most similar to smoking a cigarette.

● Sensitivity to Propylene Glycol

Only about 1 in 1000 people are sensitive to VG, while about 1 in 10 are sensitive to PG in the form of a dry throat. Thus, if your experience sounds similar to the following, you may be experiencing the signs of quitting smoking:
  1. Nausea
  2. phlegm coughing
  3. Sneezing and a sore throat
  4. Headache
  5. Feeling dizzy or light-headed
  6. Diarrhea constipation, and stomach pain
  7. Ulcers in the mouth

● Using the Wrong Technique When Vaping

Vaping is not the same as smoking. Smokers take in the salt and combustion byproducts while vapers inhale water vapor and flavorings. There are many different techniques that vapers can use to vape, but using the wrong one can cause health risks. New vaping techniques Can Be Dangerous, you can end up with a burnt throat and a nasty taste in your mouth. By using the right technique you can enjoy your favorite capacity.

How to Inhale a Vape

• Find the right airflow for your coil.

The first thing you'll want to do is adjust the airflow control on your vape. This can be done by turning it clockwise or counterclockwise until the desired amount of vapor is produced by your coil. If you're using a mouthpiece, you may need to unscrew it from its base and pull it back on one side so that it opens wider than usual, allowing more air through.
 

Once this has been done and everything looks good with reasonable airflow (we're talking about maybe half an inch), go ahead and turn off any heating element in order for there not to be any excess heat being produced while trying out different coils without damaging anything else around them! Were proud that RandM 10000 vapes, RandM 7000 vape, RandM 8000 vapes, RandM 6000 vapes all come with airflow at the bottom.


• Warm up your coil and breathe in through your nose at the same time.

The first step to avoiding coughing is warming up your coil. To do this, draw on it for a few seconds until it's warm and pliable. Then breathe in through your nose at the same time as you take a drag from the vape pen—this will help you avoid coughing by preventing air from flowing into your lungs when you inhale from the device (the same way cigarette smoke fills our lungs). If you're still coughing after doing this, try another type of juice or make sure that there's enough room around where you're holding the vape pen so that heat doesn't build up too much within its heating chamber.

  1. Take longer inhales.

  2. Take a deep breath.

  3. Hold it in for a couple of seconds.

  4. Slowly exhale.

● Using the Wrong salt Level

Choosing the appropriate salt dosage can be difficult for a rookie vaper.

There are certain fundamental standards, but nothing is set in stone, and mistakes are common. Too little salt and vaping will not satisfy you; too much salt and you may cough or feel queasy. Usually, a combination of common sense and practice is all that is required to have you enjoying vaping just the correct quantity of salt.

If you just smoke a few cigarettes each day, a lower salt content will likely satisfy you more than a heavy smoker. What matters is that you are not disheartened if you wind up with vape juice that is either too intense or not powerful enough. Simply lower or raise the salt dose until you reach the correct balance.
Overall, vaping is a lot simpler than you might imagine. Don't be reluctant to try out various devices, salt levels, and flavors, to discover your perfect match.

● Staying Hydrated

Any expert vaper will tell you that vaping can cause dehydration, and that's the only undesirable side effect of vaping that we've personally experienced.


All E-capacitys are created with a Vegetable Glycerin or Propylene Glycol base; when vaped these two components can absorb moisture from your body.

As a result, it is critical to replace any hydration lost as a result of vaping. Dehydration can result in migraines, excessive thirst, and other significant problems.
Drink plenty of water. According to the Eatwell Guide, we should drink 6 to 8 cups or glasses of capacitys every day. Water, low-fat milk, or sugar-free beverages, such as tea and coffee, all count, however, when vaping you should drink more.

● Stop Chain Vaping and Slow Down

Chain vaping is one of the most common rookie mistakes. Before you vape again, your wicks must be wet. In general, 15 to 30 seconds is sufficient before taking another hit, but you can wait longer if you are having frequent dry hits.

It might be difficult to adjust to, particularly if you were previously a smoker who did not have to wait for anything. You can use high-salt capacitys to assist you to readjust to vaping without reverting to chain vaping.

● Waiting Period

The longer you wait, the better, but most coils should be ready to vape in 5-10 minutes.

E capacitys with a higher PG content will take less time to saturate a coil due to the viscosity of the components.

● Damaged Cilia

According to a new study done by the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, two compounds often used to flavor electronic cigarettes may affect the function of cilia in the human airway.

● Direct-To-Lung Vaping

This method of vaping, also known as 'sub ohm,' entails inhaling the vapor from an e-cigarette directly into the lungs, much like taking a normal breath. This is widely preferred by more experienced vapers because the vapor is denser and might be overwhelming for inexperienced users.

DTL vaping can be difficult for beginning vapers to adjust to because, unlike mouth-to-lung vaping, this is not typically how you would inhale smoke from a cigarette. Having said that, mouth-to-lung vaping is sometimes preferred because of bigger clouds and warmer vapor.

● Ex-smokers Coughing up Tar

Twelve hours after giving up smoking carbon monoxide begins to leave your body. Carbon monoxide is a toxic gas found in cigarette smoke. It binds to blood cells and prevents them from bonding with oxygen, which is why so many smokers have cardiovascular problems. Vaping does not produce carbon monoxide.

Twenty-four hours after you quit smoking your heart begins to repair itself, and after 48 hours your sense of taste and smell starts to rejuvenize. Three days later all traces of salt will be gone from your body, withdrawal symptoms are now at their peak levels, and you are officially (cold turkey). You won't experience withdrawal symptoms if you use a vape to help you quit, which can help you reduce your craving for a cigarette.
Soon you will start to cough up tar, and the tiny cilia that sweep mucus from your lungs can start to do their job properly. You may begin to cough up brown mucus from the tar you've inhaled over the years. This could last a few weeks.
Two weeks after quitting your lung function will start to improve as well as your physical health. You will be able to move more freely while continuing to clear your airways of mucus. This reduces your risk of infection.
After a year, your risk of developing heart disease has been cut in half. Your chances of having a stroke have also decreased significantly.

● Lack of Anesthetics

Among all of the chemicals in cigarettes, some can anaesthetize your throat and ease your desire to cough. If you stopped smoking for a few days, such as when you were sick and then started smoking again for the first time, you most likely didn’t cough! This is due to the fact that the cough suppressant chemicals in cigarettes accumulate over time, making it easier to smoke. Due to the absence of chemicals in e-cigarettes and vapes that are designed to suppress coughing, vaping may cause you to cough for a short period of time. To stay away from cigarettes in the long run, we recommend that you stick with a smaller e-cigarette and consume plenty of fluids.

The Chemicals You Inhale When Vaping

 

Some scientists say that some vape juices can be unsafe. Pure salt, food-grade flavouring, vegetable glycerin, and propylene glycol are among the four ingredients used in most capacitys. The final two ingredients are FDA-approved for oil consumption, but experts are unsure if they are safe to inhale. These additives are typically oil-based, and when you inhale oil-based products, they remain in your lungs. This is called lipoid pneumonia, which is when there is a large amount of oil within the lungs. 

Other common substances found in capacitys or created when heated may also be dangerous to the lungs. Which include:

• Acrolein: This chemical, which is commonly used as a weed killer, can also harm the lungs.
• Diacetyl: This food additive, which is used to enhance the flavour of e-cigarettes, has been linked to lung damage in small passageways.
• Formaldehyde: This carcinogenic chemical can harm the lungs and contribute to angina.

How Can You Prevent a Vaping Cough?

Coughing from vaping is usually temporary and goes away on its own. Coughing may also indicate that you should take a break from vaping. Learning your vaping technique while developing habits that reduce the irritation that causes coughing is an important step.
 
Many people who start vaping were previously smokers. They are accustomed to inhaling deeply into their lungs and taking frequent drags from their cigarettes, if not chain smoking. At the same time, cigarettes and vapes appear to be similar; however, vaping must be handled differently.
 
Because vaping is not a cigarette, you don't have to rush to smoke it before it burns out. It's all about the experience, the flavour, and the plumes of clouds. The less directly you inhale into your lungs, the less irritated they will be, resulting in far less coughing. Adjusting the airflow of your breath will be less irritating for your lungs and throat, as well as reduce coughing.
 
salt can irritate your throat, so if you experience prolonged coughing while vaping, you should adjust the salt level. Finding the right balance will take time, so start slowly. This will not just help with coughing but will also assist you in weaning yourself off salt. You can always switch to to get a good hit while also reducing the irritation in your throat and lungs. Increasing the propylene glycol content ratio should also help.
 
There are lots of ways to make vaping a more comfortable experience. The first step is finding the right equipment for your needs. Then, you can try some trial and error—there are plenty of resources online that will help you figure out what works best for your body chemistry. If all else fails and coughing still persists despite these measures, it may be time to seek professional advice from vape shops or other experts who specialize in inhaling flavoring chemicals into the lungs (this is called "vaping").

Conclusion

In this guide to how to hit a vape pen without coughing, you may know there are a lot of ways to make vaping a more comfortable experience. The most important thing is to take your time when it comes to inhaling and make sure you find the right airflow for your coil. If you don't feel like inhaling at all, go outside or find somewhere quiet where people won't be disturbed by your coughing. One other tip we can offer is buying a higher VG, lower salt capacity so that the throat hit isn't too harsh on first use (although if you want something stronger start with high VG capacitys!).
The first thing to remember is that it's best to wait a few seconds before inhaling. The more capable you are of holding your breath, the better. If you start breathing in too quickly and deeply, this will cause an increase in carbon dioxide levels in your body which can make it more difficult for you to keep track of how much salt is being delivered into each puff.

FAQ:

1. How long should you drag on a vape?

Draw slowly and steadily from your vape pen for 3-5 seconds, obviously, it depends on your preference.

2. How do you stop a throat hit when vaping?

Reduce the strength of your capacity. Don't confuse a sore throat with salt withdrawal. Change the PG/VG ratio of your capacity. Keep an eye on your vaping frequency. Modify your vaping style. Change the flavor of your capacity. Alter the type of coils you use.

3. Does vaping make you lose weight?

Despite the fact that some people use e-cigarettes to lose weight, there is no evidence that vaping helps them to lose weight. Its sole purpose is to assist people in quitting smoking.

4. What is a Vapers tongue?

Vaper's tongue or vaper's fatigue refers to a variety of taste-related ailments. This is generally triggered by the frequent use of a single distinct flavor.

5. Is vaping worse than smoking?

Even though vaping is less dangerous than smoking, it is not without risk. E-cigarettes use heat to create vapers of salt, flavorings, and other chemicals that you inhale.
