FDA Authorizes NJOY Ace, a High-Strength Pod Vape

For the first time, the FDA has authorized a modern pod-based vaping product used with high-strength nicotine salt refills.

The agency today issued marketing granted orders for the NJOY Ace device and three refill pods, allowing them to be legally sold in the U.S.

The decision is important because, until now, the FDA has only allowed the sale of older, less-effective—and less-popular—vaping devices. The Ace authorization indicates the federal regulator is not opposed in principle to high-strength products that use nicotine salt e-liquid.

The vaping products authorized previously are the Vuse Solo (and refill cartridges), and the Logic Power and Logic Pro (and refills). None of those products offer the effective vapor and nicotine delivery of modern pod-based devices and refills like the NJOY Ace.
