Pediatrician on FDA’s Juul decision, Arizona cannabis ad rules

Dr. Gary Kirkilas, a pediatrician, joined “Arizona Horizon” to weigh in on two recent developments impacting youth health and substance use. The FDA has officially authorized Juul Labs to resume selling its e-cigarettes and refill cartridges after a lengthy review, though it emphasized that the products are not deemed "safe" or "FDA approved." The decision marks a significant shift in regulatory stance since the agency initially ordered Juul off the market in 2022. At the state level, Arizona has enacted HB 2179, a new law restricting youth-targeted cannabis advertising. Signed by Governor Katie Hobbs, the bill bans the use of cartoons in cannabis ads and limits placements near schools and on public transportation. Dr. Kirkilas shared insights on how both decisions could impact adolescent health, emphasizing the need for continued vigilance in preventing youth exposure to addictive substances.
