Tracking the Rise in Popularity of Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems

"Tracking the Rise in Popularity of Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems", a recent study published February 8th in the American Journal of preventative Medicine, says people are searching the Internet for electronic cigarettes, or ENDS as they call them, at a far greater rate than nicotine replacement therapies and drugs like Chantix.

In the study, John W. Ayers, MA, Kurt M. Ribisl, PhD and John S. Brownstein, Phd monitored Google searches for electronic cigarettes between January 2008 and September of 2010 in Australia, Canada, the UK and the United States and found during that time ecig related searches grew to out number "several-hundred-fold" those for other smoking alternatives and drugs like Chantix and Champix.


FDA files appeal in Ecigarette case .... again

In a not completely unforeseen move, the FDA has filed an appeal to the result of their appeal in the Sotera vs FDA Ecigarette case.

Earlier this month the US Court of Appeals upheld the earlier ruling that the FDA cannot regulate ecigarettes as drug delivery devices and instead must regulate them as tobacco products. Claiming that the three-judge panel's decision "rests on a clear error of law and will undermine" the intentions of Congress who gave the FDA jurisdiction over tobacco products in 2009, the FDA asks that the entire court of appeals for the district of Colombia hold a new hearing to review the appeal and reinstate a stay of the preliminary injunction barring them from seizing ecigarette imports pending that hearing.

 


Court of Appeals Rules Electronic Cigarettes Can Not Be Regulated as Drug Devices by FDA

The US Court of Appeals in Sottera Inc. v. Food & Drug Administration, 10- 5032, U.S. Court of Appeals, District of Columbia Circuit ruled today that the FDA lacks the authority to regulate electronic cigarettes as drug devices. This upholds a ruling made last year by Federal Court Judge Richard Leon in the original case brought by Smoking Everywhere which has since dropped out of the suit.

The FDA had argued that ecigarettes should be classified as drug devices, but the court said Ecigs can be regulated only as tobacco products under the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act which defines tobacco products as those "derived from tobacco" unless they are marketed as a therapeutic device, which reputable brands of electronic cigarettes are not.

Happy Birthday Electronic Cigarette Spot

Wow, it's our birthday!!! One year ago today the Electronic Cigarette Spot was born and what a ride it's been! Happy Birthday to Us!!!

First off I want to thank all the great readers, particularly those of you who subscribe and have been such a great source of support, information and friendship over the last year. You are all very special to me. After all, what's a blog without readers?? The ECS wouldn't be here without all of you.

When I first started this I was not really sure where it would go. I just wanted to post some of my thoughts and provide some information to clear the smoke around ecigs. So much misinformation was floating around and I figured a blog would be a great way to not only corral all the info I collected, but to help others find good information too. In the beginning there were only a few sites like this and over the last year literally hundreds of websites have popped up but sadly most are just more smoke and mirrors.

FDA to start examining ingredients of cigarettes and tobacco products

Tobacco corporations must have all their products evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration in the next 10 weeks. A law passed in 2009 gives the Food and Drug Administration authority to regulate tobacco as a drug. The merchandise review is a provision required by that law. Tobacco products that have been altered or introduced since February 2007 must have their ingredients approved by the FDA to continue being sold. Otherwise they might be checking out installment loans in order to get their products accepted.

Regulation for tobacco funded by companies selling tobacco


In a move intended to rid the market of the most addictive tobacco products, tobacco companies must get FDA approval for products that have been launched or altered since Feb. 15, 2007. Tobacco companies have to prove to the Food and Drug Administration that all of the smokeless tobacco and cigarettes are, by March 22, "substantially equivalent to those marketed prior to that date." Tobacco companies must pay to fund the reviews and any resulting regulatory action. There is no need for smokers to have more health risks or encourage non-smokers to want to smoke even more. That means the FDA will ban the cigarettes that have tobacco product ingredient changes so much that they do this.


Katherine Heigl Smokes Electronic Cigarettes

OMG... Katherine Heigl smokes electronic cigarettes!

Katherine Heigl smoking the SmokeStik on the David Letterman Show is the big news today. She just whipped it out, joked about the bejeweled bottom and went off on how great ecigs are. David Letterman even took a big puff off of it and espoused the electronic cigarettes obvious benefits too.

Now, while I usually laugh at how OMG people get when a celebrity does something, I do have to say that this could be huge PR for electronic cigarettes in general and the SmokeStik brand in particular.

Rush Limbaugh's Ecig Rant was big in the political sector. But when Katerine Heigl smokes an ecig on the Late Show? Now that's BIG.

Now Watch the Katherine Heigl on David Letterman Video!
