The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) just announced that is will ban sales of flavored e-cigarette cartridges in 30 days. Only menthol and tobacco flavors will be permitted. The new regulation applies to cartridge-based vaporizer products like those made by Juul.

The FDA said, “Under this policy companies that do not cease manufacture, distribution and sale of unauthorized flavored cartridge-based e-cigarettes (other than tobacco or menthol) within 30 days risk FDA enforcement actions,” Reason reported.

The new regulation excludes refillable, flavored vaporizer liquids often sold in vape/head shops.

The FDA Commissioner stated that the agency aims to “combat the troubling epidemic of youth e-cigarette use” by eliminating “certain flavored e-cigarette products we know are so appealing to teenagers—so-called cartridge-based products that are both easy to use and easily concealable.”

Arizona legalized marijuana for recreational use in November 2020. The law allows adults aged 21+ to purchase, possess and use cannabis. State-licensed cannabis dispensaries began selling recreational marijuana in early 2021. There are over 150 dispensaries in Arizona — a majority of them are in populous areas such as Phoenix, Tucson and Flagstaff. Recreational cannabis delivery services began operating in 2024.
