FDA Cracks Down on Sale of Unauthorized Disposable Vapes and Flavored E-Cigarettes.

The FDA has issued warning letters to dozens of retailers selling fruit- and candy-flavored disposable e-cigarettes, including the current best-selling brand, Elf Bar, which has also been cited in a separate report about thousands of calls to U.S. poison centers concerning e-cigarettes, mainly involving children under age 5. Despite the FDA's attempts to regulate the multibillion-dollar vaping industry, unauthorized e-cigarettes continue to launch, with the number of e-cigarette brands in the U.S. growing from 184 in early 2020 to 269 by late 2022.

FDA Cracks Down on Sale of Popular Disposable E-Cigarette

The FDA has issued warning letters to 189 retailers selling fruit- and candy-flavored disposable e-cigarettes, including the best-selling brand, Elf Bar, as part of its efforts to crack down on illegal disposable vapes that appeal to teenagers. The FDA has been trying to regulate the multibillion-dollar vaping industry for years, but unauthorized e-cigarettes continue to launch. The rise in unauthorized e-cigarettes coincided with the growing popularity of disposable e-cigarettes, which accounted for nearly 52% of vaping sales by late last year. Reports of nicotine poisoning have gone up and down over the past decade, but government scientists said calls increased more than 30% between last spring and March this year.

The FDA has issued warning letters to dozens of retailers selling fruit- and candy-flavored disposable e-cigarettes, including the current best-selling brand, Elf Bar, in an attempt to crack down on illegal disposable vapes that have poured into U.S. stores in recent years. Last month, the FDA issued orders allowing customs officials to seize shipments of Elf Bar, Esco Bar and two other brands at U.S. ports. The rise of unauthorized e-cigarettes coincides with the growing popularity of disposable e-cigarettes, with disposables’ share of vaping sales more than doubling from 24.7% in early 2020 to nearly 52% by late last year.
