​​​​Cosmic Fog Vapors today announced the submission of their briefing document to the Food and Drug Administration for the purpose of submitting Premarket Tobacco Applications (PMTAs) for their range of E-Liquid products.

The FDA requires that a PMTA be submitted for every E-Vapor product the was not on the market as of February 15, 2007. The deadline to submit a PMTA for products marketed prior to August 8, 2016 is November 8, 2018 for that product to remain on the shelves for an additional year during FDA’s review.

"Since the announcement of the Deeming Rule last May, we have worked tirelessly on advocating for a fair and fact based regulatory system for the vapor product category. Today, we take the responsibility of finding those facts and delivering them to the FDA ourselves. Although we will continue to support advocacy based efforts, we have a responsibility to our customers to ensure our products are available and on their shelves no matter what may happen in the future. We are confident the quality of our products will surpass the FDA's expectations."

Robert Crossley, CEO

On June 13th, Cosmic Fog Vapors’ regulatory compliance team will meet with FDA to discuss the briefing document, which details Comic Fog’s PMTA strategy, including product analysis, behavioral studies, non-clinical and clinical studies such as actual use, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies. The Cosmic Fog regulatory team includes strategic advisors with decades of experience in navigating regulated industries such as the medical device, tobacco and pharmaceutical industries.

Since the announcement of FDA’s Deeming Regulation in May 2016, Cosmic Fog Vapors has been consulting with experts to craft a PMTA strategy that will meet every level of expectation the FDA expects to see in a product entering a PMTA.

“Today is a bittersweet day,” said Robert Crossley, CEO of Cosmic Fog Vapors. “Since the announcement of the Deeming Rule last May, we have worked tirelessly on advocating for a fair and fact based regulatory system for the vapor product category. Today, we take the responsibility of finding those facts and delivering them to the FDA ourselves. Although we will continue to support advocacy based efforts, we have a responsibility to our customers to ensure our products are available and on their shelves no matter what may happen in the future. We have the utmost confidence in the new administration at FDA, particularly their science and evidence based approach to regulation. We are confident the quality of our products will surpass their expectations.”
