Online sales of e-cigarettes and vape: What FDA regulations could mean
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is putting a spotlight on the fast-growing e-cigarette and vaping industry and is considering more regulations of these products, including banning all online sales of e-cigarettes and banning flavored Vape Wholesale products.
