Lawsuits could choke off the candy‑flavored vape pipeline

A study by Rutgers Health and NYC advocates suggests using state and local lawsuits to target domestic vape distributors, focusing on regulating flavored e-cigarettes. They propose legal actions against distributors to ensure compliance with FDA regulations. The study emphasizes imposing heavy fines and legal consequences instead of imprisonment. By holding distributors financially accountable, the aim is to align vape products with legal standards and deter non-compliance. This strategy has seen progress in lawsuits filed by various states against vape distributors. The initiative aims to address the potential risks posed by unregulated, high-dose vape products entering the market.
