New Nicotine Product Rules: Expanding FDA Oversight

New legislation expands the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) authority to oversee products containing nicotine, even if it's not derived from tobacco. This means many previously unregulated products will now be subject to the same rules as traditional tobacco products, potentially affecting their availability and composition.
Key points
The FDA will now regulate all products containing nicotine, regardless of its source (e.g., synthetic nicotine).
These products will be subject to the same requirements and regulations as traditional tobacco products, potentially impacting their manufacturing and sales.
Food products with trace, naturally occurring nicotine are exempt.
