The FDA said it authorized four menthol e-cigarettes from NJOY , the vaping brand recently acquired by tobacco giant Altria , which also makes Marlboro cigarettes.
The agency stressed the products are neither safe nor ' FDA approved' and that people who don't smoke shouldn't use them.
The decision lends new credibility to vaping companies' longstanding argument that their products can help blunt the toll of smoking.
