Anti-tobacco groups are urging the government to regulate synthetic nicotine e-cigarette products as drugs so that they undergo the same oversight as traditional tobacco.
The letter sent to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) was signed by several organizations including the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids, the American Academy of Pediatrics, and the American Lung Association.
The groups argued that e-cigarette manufacturers are using a loophole to avoid government regulations.
