Federal Flavor Regulatory Initiatives
In February 2020, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) began prioritizing enforcement of existing regulations against prefilled e-cigarette cartridges in flavors other than tobacco and menthol. This prioritization did not apply to e-liquid bottles or single-use disposable e-cigarettes.
FDA began issuing marketing denial orders for flavored e-cigarette products as of August 26, 2021.
As of January 2026, FDA has authorized 39 e-cigarette products to be marketed in the U.S.1 These are the only products that may lawfully be sold in the U.S.
Beginning April 14, 2022, FDA had the authority to regulate products containing nicotine from any source, including synthetic nicotine.
Other Relevant Issues
During the period covered by this data brief, additional flavored tobacco products continued to be marketed (e.g., flavored cigars) or entered the market (e.g., nicotine pouches).
Units of e-cigarettes are not adjusted to account for variations in unit size. Large-format disposable e-cigarettes that allow for thousands of “puffs” are now available. Declines in unit sales may not signify declines in prevalence of use or consumption. Please see www.tobaccomonitoring.org for more information about the total amount of e-cigarette nicotine sold in each of the states for which unit sales are presented in this data brief.
Following California’s prohibition of flavored tobacco product sales in December 2022, sales of products branded as clear, clear ice and unflavored, likely containing non-menthol synthetic cooling agents, increased (e.g., Flum Pebble Clear, EB Design BC5000 Clear). These products are categorized as Clear/Other Cooling in this data brief.
The e-cigarette or vaping product use-associated lung injury (EVALI) outbreak in late 2019 and COVID-19 pandemic may have affected e-cigarette sales.
State and Local Legislative Initiatives
As of September 2025, California and Massachusetts restrict the sale of flavored tobacco products; New Jersey restricts the sale of all flavored e-cigarettes; New York restricts the sale of flavored e-cigarettes unless they have marketing authorization from the FDA; and Rhode Island and Utah restrict the sale of flavored e-cigarettes, except menthol. In addition, nearly 400 local jurisdictions restrict the sale of flavored tobacco products, including e-cigarettes.

Oregon Policy Summary

Retail sales data are based on custom research by the CDC Foundation using Circana retail POS (Multi-Outlet+ and Convenience). Financial support was provided by Bloomberg Philanthropies through a grant to the CDC Foundation. According to Circana, new product coding is managed to consistently meet or exceed releasing products that cover a minimum of 95.5% of total dollar sales at any given time. To account for the remaining share, Circana applies projection algorithms that ensure the released data is representative of both total U.S. and state-level sales.
