Controversial Juul E-cigarettes Removed from Market by FDA
All Juul e-cigarette products are being taken off the market by the FDA due to potentially harmful chemicals.

The US Food and Drug Administration has removed all electronic cigarette products manufactured by controversial company Juul, but not for the reasons one might expect.


The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has announced its plans to remove Juul products from the market. This decision is based on toxicology data and the potential risk of harmful chemicals that have been found to seep out from the company's proprietary pods, rather than their appeal to young people.


This move by the FDA is the most significant action taken to date against a major tobacco company and could spell disaster for the Juul brand.
