Fighting back against GlaxoSmithKline

[Vocalek]

Start Scientific is fighting back against GlaxoSmithKline's request to the FDA (GSK wants the FDA to take a close look at smokeless tobacco > Facts & Fears > ACSH) to ban dissolvable tobacco products.

The small Virginia company has requested that FDA approve its tobacco lozenges as modified risk tobacco products. The Associated Press: Firm makes itself test case for lower-risk tobacco

And ACSH comments on the move: Star Scientific Requests Market Approval For Tobacco Lozenge Safety > Facts & Fears > ACSH
