|
|
U.S. Court of Appeals ruled that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration can regulate electronic cigarettes only as tobacco products. The Court’s decision means the FDA is entitled to monitor the marketing and sales of the products,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but has no authority to restrict them. The FDA initially asked the court whether it can ban electronic cigarettes or regulate them as drugs.
An inhalator is used to inhale medications in the form of a mist. An electronic cigarette is battery-powered device, containing a cartridge with liquid nicotine. When used,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the battery heats the liquid and it is inhaled in vaporized form. So, both devices work in a similar way, so that is strange that the court has decided that e-cig is not a drug-delivery device, delivering nicotine,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a highly addictive and harmful substance.
Nicotine is highly poisonous and its ingestion can lead to poisoning, nervous breakdowns,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], vomiting and other adverse effects,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], including death.
