Michigan’s Attorney General said earlier this week that it and 41 other attorneys general have sent a letter asking the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to ban the marketing of Star Scientific Inc.’s Ariva, a mint-flavored tobacco lozenge.
But a recent Supreme Court ruling raises questions as to whether the FDA could do anything about Ariva even if it wanted to.
According to Star, Ariva — which is made of powdered and compressed tobacco that has been flavored — is sold to adults as an alternative to cigarettes when smoking in certain places is not an option, and is now available in more than 40 states.
