120-day reprieve gives nicotine manufacturers more time during coronavirus crisis....
On March 30, the FDA filed a motion with the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland requesting a 120-day extension of the premarket application deadline for many e-cigarettes, cigars and other tobacco products.
In the motion, the agency said the extension was needed solely because of the coronavirus outbreak, and that it would not do so “but for these highly unusual circumstances.”
If granted, the 120-day extension would move the deadline to Sept. 9, 2020.
