I just cracked open a bottle of Halo Malibu to toast the people who stood up immediately. It looks like they did their homework and were well prepared, like any smart business should have been. I have loved their menthols since the beginning of my vaping journey and here they are stepping up when it matters most!

NICOTINE IS A DRUG
I have been Searching and Searching and cannot find anything where the FDA(Government) Has Classified Nicotine<Stand Alone> As A Drug.
Yes, Medicines containing<do to FDA Regulation of Medicines> Nicotine are listed as Drugs - This is the FINAL PRODUCT, not Nicotine in the Product.
All I have really found is Nicotine is an Alkaloid
nicotine | C10H13N2 - PubChem
I am of the mindset that Statements like Highly Addictive should come under the same ruling as less toxic and Not allowed

I'm trying to find a date on when this happened, but can't find any other articles on it.
A Word from The TVECA Legal Team | The Lesser of Evils | TVECA
If these new Regulations effect Trade Agreements it could be used to file a lawsuit.
The Tobacco compainies have been using Trade Agreements for years to fight for their right to kill people.

Just to help out, Halo's coupon code for 10% off juice is...I've never tried Halo but that's about to change...
I just hope they didn't jump too soon.
ECF2015
And I think Nicopure timed it nicely!
What's that saying... oh, yeah... "Strike while the iron is hot."
It's gonna be interesting to see how many others jump in now that the first returning salvo has been fired.
Thanks for that - I just missed it!
You can go back to the beginning and start it over. The debate starts just after 16:28 in.

Yes, nicotine is an active ingredient in a drug, just as penicillin is an active ingredient. The active ingredient is almost always provided for use in various forms, such as injectable penicillin, pills, or capsules. The active ingredient will be combined with a number of inactive ingredients for administration. So inactive binders may be used to create a tablet (or capsule, which have a different set of inactive ingredients such as the gelatin), or specific liquids may be mixed containing the active ingredient for injection.
The FDA began regulating nicotine (no matter how obtained, whether extracted from tobacco or synthetically manufactured) back when nicotine delivery systems first were approved for smoking cessation. Those were the now familiar Nicorette line of gum, patches, oral inhalers, and even a nasal spray. These all required a prescription from a healthcare provider to obtain. In time, gum and patches were allowed to be sold over the counter, not requiring a prescription. The nasal spray version still requires a prescription in the US. These products are also available as generic drugs as the original patents have expired.
Covington & Burling is a well regarded firm. I do hope Nicopure understands the fees a firm like Covington will charge. Firms such as this are far from your local legal firm that prepares wills and handles divorces.
The first three claims argued, which boil down to the agency overreaching their authority and acting in an arbitrary manner creating an undue burden on the plaintiff/Nicopure/the vaping industry will keep the courts busy for quite a while. The First Amendment argument though will likely fall flat.
Yes the fees are high for these attorneys, however the fees would be paid by the FDA if the complaint is ruled in favor of Nicopure. And it is almost a survivalist approach. "We must win, or perish..."
Nicopure/Halo is an American company, manufacturing their eliquid in Florida, and selling hardware made overseas. I think many of the large vape hardware companies are foreign.
