U.S. Media Offers Advice on FDA Review of New Tobacco Products
Some U.S. media say the FDA should be cautious when reviewing massive new tobacco product applications, including vaping devices, and avoid repeating mistakes made in earlier product authorizations.
Recently, some U.S. media outlets have offered suggestions regarding government regulators’ review of new tobacco products. They pointed out that when the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) sorts through as many as 150,000 pages of market applications for new tobacco products such as vaping products, it should proceed carefully and avoid repeating nearly the same mistakes.
Their recommendations are mainly directed at the U.S. FDA’s review of Philip Morris International’s application to market and sell its new heated tobacco product in the U.S. domestic market.

In fact, the agency had already allowed the company to begin selling the IQOS device in May of this year. In response, some media outlets suggested that the U.S. FDA should carefully consider its handling of the Vuse product review, in order to prevent increasingly evolving new products from continuing to spread among young people and to better protect public health.
