FDA Plans To Limit Flavored E-Cigarette Sales To Vape Shops

The FDA is taking steps to restrict sales of most flavored e-cigarettes to vape shops.  It's also reportedly moving forward with a ban on menthol cigarettes to help cut down epidemic levels of teen vaping. CNBC says senior FDA officials will announce the plan next week.   The agency is giving five major e-cigarette manufacturers until Sunday to submit proposals on how to prevent teens from using the product.  FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb recently cited new data showing a 77 percent increase in high school students using e-cigarettes.
