The Biden administration is preparing to implement a new rule aimed at significantly reducing nicotine levels in tobacco products, a move that has been in development for several years. This initiative comes amid ongoing concerns about flavored vaping products and their appeal to younger audiences. Recent studies suggest that non-tobacco flavored vaping products may be overlooked by the FDA, which is likely to focus on granting marketing authorization primarily to products that mimic the taste of cigarettes.

Additionally, health officials have raised alarms about the potential health risks associated with flavored vaping products, including their impact on DNA alteration in cells.
