Juul Labs agreed to pay nearly $440 million to settle a two-year investigation into the marketing of its high-nicotine vaping products, which have long been blamed for sparking a national surge in teen vaping.
FDA bans Juul's vapes, pods citing 'conflicting' data on potentially harmful chemicals
While Juul's early marketing focused on young, urban consumers, the company has since shifted to pitching its product as an alternative nicotine source for older smokers. The deal also includes restrictions on where Juul products may be placed in stores, age verification on all sales and limits to online and retail sales.
Juul initially sold its high-nicotine pods in flavors like mango, mint and creme. The products became a scourge in U.S. high schools, with students vaping in bathrooms and hallways between classes.
