FDA Loses Appeal, Can’t Regulate E-Cigarettes as Drug

December 9th, 2010

Dec. 7 (Bloomberg) — The U.S. Food and Drug Administration lacks the authority to regulate electronic cigarettes as drugs or devices, an appeals court ruled, upholding a lower-court decision.

The U.S. Court of Appeals in Washington said today the FDA can only regulate e-cigarettes as a tobacco product. The ruling means the government can oversee the marketing of the products, not restrict their sale.

This is GREAT NEWS for Vape Gourmet and YOU!

Now is the time to make a generous contribution to help us get all the Vape Gourmet electronic cigarette products into local stores! Won’t you help us out?
