FDA Targeted Ban on Flavored E-Cigarettes Did Not Significantly Reduce Youth Use

In January 2020, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) began stepping up enforcement against the sale of most sweet-flavored e-cigarette cartridges as part of an effort to reduce e-cigarette use among youth. A study published today in JAMA Network Open suggests that this targeted enforcement was not associated with a significant decline in e-cigarette use among youth.
