FDA grants first-ever modified risk orders to eight smokeless tobacco products.
May 08, 2023

The available scientific evidence, including long-term epidemiological studies, shows that relative to cigarette smoking, exclusive use of these specific smokeless tobacco products poses lower risk of mouth cancer, heart disease, lung cancer, stroke, emphysema, and chronic bronchitis.
