INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Juul has stopped selling a number of its flavored nicotine products — mango, creme, fruit and cucumber — in the United States , pending
a review by the United States Food and Drug Administration
Now, the vaping company will only sell in the United States the flavors that taste like tobacco, mint or menthol, the company announced
today.
We must reset the vapor category by earning the trust of society and working cooperatively with regulators, policymakers, and
stakeholders to combat underage use while providing an alternative to adult smokers,& Juul CEO K.C
Crosthwaite said in a statement.
This comes after Juul stopped actively supporting San Francisco Proposition C, ceased its advertising
campaigns in the U.Sand stopped lobbying the FDA on its draft flavor guidance.
But this doesn''t mean Juul is giving up on selling these
The company said it will continue to try to develop scientific evidence to support the use of those flavored products, as well as develop
stricter measures to combat underage usage
Meanwhile, Juul is still selling all of its flavors outside of the United States
Earlier this week, a parent who lost her child filed a
wrongful lawsuit against Juul
That suit is just one of several lawsuits Juul faces.
