"It is important to note that the FDA today has taken only the first step by announcing its intention to extend its authority to other categories of tobacco products. Once it has asserted jurisdiction, the agency will then establish a regulatory scheme appropriate to each category of products.
"With regard to e-cigarettes, the FDA should quickly assert jurisdiction and issue specific regulations protecting public health, including restrictions on marketing, sales to anyone under 18, health claims and product quality. The FDA should also make it clear that it will regulate any e-cigarettes that make smoking cessation claims, which many do, as drugs and devices and subject them to the same rigorous scientific review as other smoking cessation products.
"The FDA's rigorous regulation of tobacco products is critical to reduce the toll of death and disease from tobacco, which kills more than 400,000 Americans annually and is the number one cause of preventable death in the United States and around the world."
