June 23, 2022 update Juul Labs has been added to the FDA's latest public MDO list after the agency today denied PMTAs for all current Juul products.

April 8, 2022 update Fontem US, LLC was added to FDA's public MDO list after the agency rejected PMTAs for Fontem's myblu device and most of its refill pods

Feb. 22, 2022 update FDA's public MDO list was updated on Feb. 17 to add another name---Al Khalifa Group---to the companies known to have received MDOs.

Nov. 1 update We have noted MDOs rescinded by the FDA.

The FDA announced today that 28 additional companies have been added to its list of manufacturers that have received marketing denials since its last update on Sept. 17. All the products receiving Marketing Denial Orders (MDOs) were flavored vaping products.

The total number of companies receiving MDOs for flavored product Premarket Tobacco Applications (PMTAs) is now 323. (An alphabetical list can be found at the end of this article.) The FDA says the denials cover nearly 1.2 million flavored products.

All of the new listings are small manufacturers. Since the FDA began issuing MDOs on Aug. 26, the vast majority have gone to small companies, with just a few issued to larger open-system manufacturers like Turning Point Brands and AVAIL Vapor. One publicly traded company that makes closed-system prefilled devices, Bidi Vapor, has also received MDOs for flavored products.

With the first MDO’s issued in August, the FDA also announced a new standard that requires PMTAs for flavored products other than tobacco and menthol to show “sufficient product-specific scientific evidence to demonstrate enough of a benefit to adult smokers that would overcome the risk posed to youth.” All of the marketing denials issued so far have been based on that previously unwritten standard.

Shops that didn't bother to register or apply for PMTAs are in the most enviable of non-enviable positions. FDA doesn't know you exist and, for the good of your customers who rely on your products to stay smoke-free, you should strive to keep it that way. https://t.co/kCQuyCUA7D

Since the Sept. 9, 2020 submission deadline for PMTAs, the FDA has issued no marketing authorizations for any vapor products. [EDITOR’S NOTE: On Oct. 12, the FDA issued marketing authorizations for the Vuse Solo and two tobacco-flavored cartridges.] The agency has also not made decisions on mass-market products from Juul Labs, Reynolds American, NJOY, Logic, or Blu, which FDA Center for Tobacco Products Director Mitch Zeller said would be prioritized in the review process because of their popularity.

The FDA was expected to announce some decisions on the large manufacturers’ products by Sept. 9, 2021—the deadline for unauthorized products to be removed from the market. All vaping products made with tobacco-derived nicotine are now technically illegal to sell, and only exist on the market through FDA enforcement discretion. That includes tobacco- and menthol-flavored vaping products and flavored products like nicotine pouches.

Some small manufacturers have begun reformulating their products with synthetic nicotine, which could skirt current FDA tobacco product authority. It isn’t known if the agency will attempt to regulate synthetic nicotine as a drug.

Although the FDA says it has issued 323 MDOs, the agency’s published list contains just 260 names. The FDA says manufacturers that were issued denials for products not currently being marketed are not named. [NOTE: We have added additional companies with products receiving MDOs.]

The list is alphabetical, with the date the MDO was issued noted to the right of each name. All dates are from 2021 unless otherwise noted.

Shame on them. They act like they are concerned for our health and hit the one source that has seriously cut the legs off of smoking addiction. They keep spreading lies about vsping being more dangerous. BS. Ask a vaper, any vaper, who used to be a smoker. I dare you.

Amazing how the FDA is so concerned with vaping but not the opioid epidemic that has completely decimated parts of the south and the insane amount of big tobacco marketing that STILL goes on down here.

This is bs js i vape because i used to smoke i feel way healthier when vaping but they take the least harmful thing all of the companies i enjoy juice from are on that list this cannot stand it hast to change i dont wanna smoke cigs to get my nicotine

I hope the FDA get their butts sued off.

This list is PART right, We did not get a FULL MDO, we have part in limbo and part was MDO’ed

It’s a list of companies that received MDOs on (mostly) flavored products. Being lsited doesn’t mean all of the company’s products received denial orders.
