FDA Working on Landmark Regulations for Tobacco Products
The US FDA is enforcing regulations on tobacco products, including reduced nicotine content and banning of mint flavoring.

The US Food and Drug Administration's Center for Tobacco Products is working on several milestone regulations to establish product standards for combustible tobacco products sold in the US. For combustible cigarettes, these product standards will prohibit the use of menthol as a characterizing flavor and significantly reduce nicotine content. The agency is also seeking to eliminate characterizing flavors in cigars. On October 20th, 2022, Mark Vaders, a lawyer from Womble Bond Dickinson, will join Dr. Amirala S. Pasha from the Mayo Clinic and Stacey Gagosian from the Truth Initiative at the Food and Drug Law Institute's annual conference on tobacco and nicotine product regulation and policy to discuss the potential benefits, drawbacks, and challenges associated with implementing these rules.


As part of the Tobacco Law and Regulation Overview course launched by FDLI on October 18, 2022, Mark will also be teaching a course on product compliance.
