With the U.S. Food and Drug Administration recently authorizing additional e-cigarette products in both menthol and tobacco flavors, tobacco companies are pushing a questionable “harm reduction” narrative.
They promote “smoke-free” products as alternatives to combustible products, but the products they promote keep people hooked on nicotine and initiate new users. Nicotine remains the addictive chemical in cigarettes, e-cigarettes, and nicotine pouches.
Our public health legal expert Willow Anderson will explore federal regulations of these products and discuss both authorized and unauthorized nicotine products. This 30-minute session will also examine how public health advocates can counteract the “harm reduction” narrative surrounding nicotine products.
