TPD compliant electronic cigarette Manufacturers

Australia’s ban on nicotine-inclusive e-cigarettes started on October 1 ,2021. Vapers in the market for nicotine e-cigarettes, vape juice (nicotine pods), or liquid nicotine (e-liquid) must not get them by prescription only. Vape shops and retail stores may continue to sell the non-nicotine vape/e-cigarette products. Other nicotine-containing products, such as nicotine gum, patches, lozenges, chews, sprays, and other vaping products that do not contain nicotine also do not fall under this rule.

Countless health entities such as Public Health England (PHE) promote such alternative products as smoking cessation and/or harm reduction tools.A number of studies have pointed out that in countries where vaping rates have increased, smoking rates have decreased, and vaping rates seem to decreasing aswell. In fact, a 2020 US survey indicated that only 20% of high school students and 5% of middle school students have reported recently using e-cigs. This is a significant drop in comparison to the 28% and 11% reported in 2019, with the percentages suggested to equate to a drop of 1.8 million, from 5.4 million to 3.6 million.

While public health advocates are frustrated as most PMTAs remain pending despite a September deadline set by the US District Court in Maryland, several anti-tobacco groups keep pressuring the agency to flat out deny applications for flavoured vaping products. With regards to the newly approved Logic Technology products, the FDA said that given that they are just tobacco flavoured, they may be less appealing to teens and could probably be of benefit to adult smokers seeking an alternative to traditional cigarettes. The agency added that their smoking cessation benefits to adults likely outweigh the risks to young people. Similarly, fifteen past Presidents of the Society for Research on Nicotine and Tobacco (SRNT) have recently published an article highlighting the importance of weighing the benefits of e-cigarettes against their risks, when debating and considering vape regulations.

Puff Bar vape, a popular disposable electronic cigarette that uses flavored synthetic nicotine, may face scrutiny now that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has the authority to regulate synthetic, or lab-created, nicotine products. On March 11, a new federal spending bill was signed into law giving the FDA regulatory power over synthetic nicotine, also called tobacco-free nicotine. Previously, the FDA only had the power to regulate products containing tobacco-based nicotine. Many e-cigarette makers, including Puff Bar, used this loophole to continue selling their nicotine-based products without gaining direct approval from the FDA.

On March 25th, 2022, the Northwest Territories announced that it’s ban on the sale of flavoured vaping products will take effect. This ban was intended to better protect the public and youth from vaping as “a significant health hazard… causing acute lung injury”, despite overwhelming evidence that these events were linked to illegal THC products purchased from the illicit market, not legal nicotine vape products.
