THE US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has filed complaints seeking permanent injunctions in Federal district courts against six manufacturers of electronic cigarettes.
The defendants are alleged to have failed to submit premarket applications for the items, and have continued to "illegally manufacture, sell and distribute their products despite previous warnings from the FDA that they were in violation of the law".
It's the first time the FDA has initiated proceedings to enforce the US Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act's premarket review requirements for new tobacco products.
Impacted suppliers include E-Cig Crib in Minnesota, Soul Vapor in West Virginia, Super Vape'z in Washington, Vapor Craft in Georgia, Lucky's Vape & Smoke Shop in Kansas and Seditious Vapours LLC which trades as Butt Out in Arizona.
