The FDA is the food and drug control agency in the United States. The acronym FDA stands for Food and Drug Administration. This American regulatory body has been regulating vaping products as if they were tobacco products since August 2016, and subjects vaping to the same rules.

Since August 2016, the Food and Drug Administration has controlled vaping. It is the FDA that dictates the laws on vaping, its authorization, its prohibition, the nicotine limit that e-liquids can contain, and the type of products authorised on the American market, for example.
