To effectively plan and implement preventive measures, comprehensive analyses are needed to understand the influence of individual and contextual factors on their use.\n Objective This study aimed to analyze the influence of poverty and demographic and socioeconomic patterns on e-cigarette use in Colombia.\nMethods This study is based on a secondary analysis of the 2019 Colombian Survey on Psychoactive Substance Use, which included 49,756 individuals aged between 12 and 68. State-level multidimensional poverty and individual health-related, socioeconomic, and demographic characteristics were analyzed. Two-level regression models adjusted for the individual and contextual effects.\nResults The prevalence of vaping was 4.4% (95% CI: 4.2%-4.6%), with substantial variation across departments, ranging from 0.0% to 9.6%. In the multilevel models, younger age, male sex, technical or higher education, middle-income stratum, not contributing economically to the household, affiliation with the subsidized health scheme, history of tobacco smoking, alcohol consumption, and self-reported use of other drugs were all significantly associated with vaping. The estimated median odds ratio for multidimensional poverty was 1.23 (95% CI: 1.14-1.33; p= 0.012).\nConclusions E-cigarette use in Colombia is a health risk and an indicator of social vulnerability that is influenced by structural determinants. Urgent action from health authorities, the education system, regulatory bodies, and civil society is needed to prevent the normalization of vaping among youth. If left unaddressed, vaping could worsen health inequalities and lead to chronic addiction-related disorders in underserved communities.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.25100\/cm.v55i4.6562","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,7]],"date-time":"2025-05-07T16:41:21Z","timestamp":1746636081000},"page":"e2006562","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.25100\/cm.crossmarkpolicy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Socioeconomics of e-cigarette use in Colombia: 2019 National Substance Use Survey"],"prefix":"10.25100","volume":"55","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8446-1231","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jos\u00e9","family":"Moreno-Montoya","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1382-6859","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Silvia Marcela","family":"Ballesteros","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9087-2544","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jos\u00e9 A.","family":"De la Hoz-Valle","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"10728","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"91963","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Daisy Dai H.
