Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act

The FSPTCA became law on June 22, 2009. It gives the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) the authority to regulate the manufacture, distribution, and marketing of tobacco products to protect public health.

E-cigarettes emerge….• First smokeless cigar invented in 1963• In 2003, Hon Lik, a Chinese pharmacist patented modern e-

Cigarette design. The company Lik worked for, Golden Dragon Holdings, developed the device and changed its name to Ruyan, which means “like smoke.”

• Today, there are over 400 e-Cigarette Brands.• E-cigarettes started appearing in the US market 2006-2009

Page 5: Youth use and appeal of e-cigarettes and intervention ...that electronic cigarettes are not “drugs,” “drug delivery systems,” or “drug device combinations” under 21 U.S.C

•Smoking Everywhere files a federal complaint. Smoking Everywhere contends that the FDA has no authority over electronic cigarettes, as they are a “tobacco product,” and the FDA’s attempt to regulate them infringes on Congress’s intent to withhold FDA jurisdiction over tobacco products. Smoking Everywhere contends that electronic cigarettes are not “drugs,” “drug delivery systems,” or “drug device combinations” under 21 U.S.C 321(g).

FDA adds electronic cigarettes to Import Alert 66-41 and directs the U.S. Customs and Border Protection to reject the entry of electronic cigarettes into the United States on the basis of them being unapproved drug delivery devices.

March 2009

April 2009

Are they a tobacco product or a drug delivery device???

Page 6: Youth use and appeal of e-cigarettes and intervention ...that electronic cigarettes are not “drugs,” “drug delivery systems,” or “drug device combinations” under 21 U.S.C

Smoking Everywhere v. FDA, U.S. Court of Appeals in Washington rules the FDA can only regulate e-cigarettes as a tobacco product, unless therapeutic claims are made.

December 2010

US District Court (district of Columbia) prohibits the FDA from seizing e-cigarettes as drug or drug/device combinations.Jan

2010

FDA shall not detain or refuse admission into the United States of NJOY's electronic cigarette products on the ground that those products are unapproved drugs, devices, or drug-device combinations under the FDCA, absent a proffer of evidence, consistent with the Court's Memorandum Opinion, that NJOY's products are intended to have a therapeutic effect;

E-cigarettes can only be regulated as tobacco products

Page 7: Youth use and appeal of e-cigarettes and intervention ...that electronic cigarettes are not “drugs,” “drug delivery systems,” or “drug device combinations” under 21 U.S.C

Per FSPTCA, E-cigarettes contain nicotine from tobacco and can only be regulated as tobacco

products

BUTThe FSPTCA did not cover e-cigarettes till 2016

THEREFOREFrom 2010 to Oct 2016

E-cigarettes were not regulated

Nicotine is highly addictive and the adolescent brain is sensitive to even low levels of nicotine

• Adolescent animals get more easily addicted to nicotine than adults

• Most human cigarette smoking starts prior to the age of 18

• Smokers who start prior to the age of 18 have greater chronic disease burden and find it harder to quit smoking

Page 52: Youth use and appeal of e-cigarettes and intervention ...that electronic cigarettes are not “drugs,” “drug delivery systems,” or “drug device combinations” under 21 U.S.C

Nicotine is a neurotoxin in the adolescent brain

In adolescent animals nicotine is a well established neurotoxin• Pruning and brain development• Changes neural pathways and behaviors related to

learning, memory, attention processes • Leads to hyperactivity. • Makes it easier to get addicted to other substances

• produces epigenetic changes (genes involves in asthma and depression)

Adolescent humans who smoke also experience memory and attention deficits after using cigarettes, and have greater rates of depression and anxiety

What can we do to reduce youth e-cig use?

• Product regulation• Reduce or limit flavors?• Reduce nicotine concentrations?• Include nicotine content labels that are easy to understand• Remove youth appealing packaging ( e.g. flavors)?• Create efficient devices that cannot be manipulated• Dealing with marijuana vaping?

• Other regulatory efforts that have shown benefit for reducing cigarette smoking• Restricting youth sales and access• Restricting advertising• Taxation

Page 59: Youth use and appeal of e-cigarettes and intervention ...that electronic cigarettes are not “drugs,” “drug delivery systems,” or “drug device combinations” under 21 U.S.C

What can we do to reduce youth e-cig use?

• Education and Prevention• Teachers, parents, children• Change harm perceptions about Nicotine • Change harm perceptions about Flavors.

• Cessation• Develop interventions based on behavioral and pharmacological

methods that have worked for cigarette smoking• Understand ecigarette cues• Understand e-cigarette and nicotine dependence and withdrawal

• Develop interventions for marijuana vaping

Page 60: Youth use and appeal of e-cigarettes and intervention ...that electronic cigarettes are not “drugs,” “drug delivery systems,” or “drug device combinations” under 21 U.S.C

Treatment Modalities used with Youth

• 5 A’s (USDHHS, 2012)• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
