FDA Releasing Plans to Regulate E-Cigarettes


The Food and Drug Administration is outlining plans to regulate electronic cigarettes as well as cigars, pipe tobacco and hookahs. The Washington Post says the plans, if adopted, would force e-cigarette manufacturers to stop selling to minors, stop handing out free samples, put warning labels on their products and disclose the ingredients. As of yet, there are no plans to ban online sales or the use of flavorings that critics say are designed to attract young smokers.
