The Food and Drug Administration has announced a ban on most flavored vaping cartridges in an attempt to check e-cigarette use among teenagers and children
The FDA said that the ban comes after the 2019 National Youth Tobacco Survey concluded that over 5 million U.S. middle and high school students vape, or had vaped within the past 30 days. Additionally, 1.6 million kids said they used e-cigarettes regularly, and almost 1 million used e-cigarettes daily. The FDA cited another study that suggested adolescents were primarily drawn to fruit or mint flavored vape cartridges, as opposed to tobacco or menthol ones.
On top of the ban, the FDA said it would prioritize enforcement of e-cigarette products that seem to target youths with “products marketed with labeling and/or advertising that resemble kid-friendly foods and drinks such as juice boxes or kid-friendly cereal; products marketed directly to minors by promoting ease of concealing the product or disguising it as another product; and products marketed with characters designed to appeal to youth.
