FDA Orders JUUL Products Removed from US Market
JUUL forced to remove all products from US market due to FDA marketing refusal order.

On June 23rd, the FDA issued a Marketing Denial Order to JUUL Labs Inc., requiring them to remove all JUUL products from the US market, including JUUL e-cigarettes and four types of JUUL pods. Following this order, Tony Abboud, the Executive Director of the Vapor Technology Association, made a statement regarding the matter. The full statement is as follows:

 

According to reports, the rejection of JUUL's PMTA application is shocking. While JUUL is certainly at the center of the controversy, the rigorous, peer-reviewed scientific data determining the effectiveness of JUUL products for smoking cessation has raised serious questions about the subjective balance test of the FDA and whether public pressure has guided policy development.
