Tobacco Product Standard for Nicotine Level of Combusted Cigarettes; Extension of Comment Period

Resumen

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or the Agency) is extending the comment period for the advance notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPRM) that appeared in the Federal Register of March 16, 2018. In the ANPRM, FDA requested information for consideration in developing a tobacco product standard to set a maximum nicotine level in combusted cigarettes so that they are minimally addictive or nonaddictive. The Agency is taking this action in response to requests for an extension to allow interested persons additional time to submit comments.
