The FDA Postpones A Long Awaited Decision On Juul's Vaping Products
NPR ^ | 9/9/21

Posted on 09/09/2021 1:18:05 PM PDT by Drango

The Food and Drug Administration says it has ruled on whether some e-cigarette products can remain on the market, but that it's also delaying action on products made by Juul, which accounts for 40% of the e-cigarette market.

The FDA said Thursday that it has issued marketing denial orders for more than 946,000 flavored vaping products because their applications "lacked sufficient evidence that they have a benefit to adult smokers sufficient to overcome the public health threat posed by the well-documented, alarming levels of youth use of such products."

One in five high school students — and more than 6% of American adults overall — now say they vape.

So is a wine bottle. And it wasn’t a wine bottle that helped me quit smoking 8 years ago. And I quit vaping shortly thereafter.

Vape pens don’t generate the tax revenue that tobacco and drugs do.

They wanted to ban vape, no long term study.
They want you take a jab with no long term study

As far as vape juice goes, people will just buy unflavored and mix it themselves. Same with nicotine.

“Vape pens don’t generate the tax revenue that tobacco and drugs do.”

Cha-CHING! Somehow, someway, they’ll correct that. Bet on it.

So are cigarettes. The difference is that vape pens do far less damage to the mouth, throat and lungs. The witless idiots seeking to ban vape pens will drive millions of smokers back to cigarettes and increased chances of cancer.

Is there an injection point? I don't know ANYTHING about vaping. I see the shops all over the place. But can they mix some fruit juice in their pen or something?

It’s just food flavoring mixed into the vegetable glycerin and/or PG. Nicotine is optional.

You just mix it in a dispensing bottle with a narrow tip, use the tip to pour it into the reservoir in the vape pen or device and vape. That's about it.

Juul's business model has screwed them over. They're like HP with color cartridges: you have to get a prefilled "pod" to use the product. That's an Achilles' heel for FDA strangulation.

Minnesota charges a tax of 95% of the wholesale cost on e-cigarettes and e-juice which contains nicotine.

I saw something on TV during the lockdown that in the UK they were initially against vape products, but determined that it would be better to encourage current tobacco smokers to switch to vaping.

Can’t say for sure if that is official UK health policy, because I was drunk when I watched it.

You’re a nanny state busybody. Vape pens are the best smoking cessation device ever invented. And low grade morons like you want to ban them.

Idiot.

So don’t let yoots buy vaping products. Oh, wait, they did that. Well, next they have to come after liquor because kids shouldn’t use it, either. Let’s be consistent here.
