Vapor Technology Association Raises Concerns Over Reported FDA Product Market Denial for JUUL

WASHINGTON, June 22, 2022 (Newswire.com) - Following media reports of a decision by the Food and Drug Administration to issue a product market denial for JUUL Lab's vaping products, Vapor Technology Association Executive Director Tony Abboud released the following statement: 

"The reported denial of JUUL's PMTA application is stunning. While the company has certainly been at the epicenter of conflict, the amount of rigorous, peer-reviewed science supporting their products' ability to help smokers quit, raises serious questions about the FDA's subjective balancing test and whether public pressure campaigns will steer science policy in the future."
