FDA proposes tobacco rules to make manufacturing more consistent and ingredients more transparent
The proposed rules would apply to all FDA-regulated bulk and finished tobacco products, including cigarettes, cigars, chewing tobacco and e-cigarettes. They would require companies to investigate and identify products that don’t meet standards and recall the ones that had made it to market. All ingredients and components or additives and materials would also be be traceable, so if an investigation found a product that didn’t meet standards, it could easily be recalled.
“All with an eye toward enhancing public health and, at a certain level, enhancing the value and reliability of these alternative products to help an increased number of smokers stop smoking, and to not use anything wherever possible, but when they do, to ensure that they know what they’re getting,” Douglas said. Gregory Conley, director of legislative and external affairs for the American Vapor Manufacturers Association, said he’s disappointed by timing of the proposed rules.
