Electronic cigarette manufacturer JUUL has asked a federal appeals court to step in and block a ban on their products issued by the Food and Drug Administration.

The FDA acknowledged that it "has not received clinical information to suggest an immediate hazard associated" with the use of Juul's devices or pods, but said the agency issued its marketing denial orders against the company because "there is insufficient evidence to assess the potential toxicological risks" of using the products.

Juul disputed any accusations of providing insufficient data, claiming that they had provided the relevant information to the FDA at least two years ago. "In our applications, which we submitted over two years ago, we believe that we appropriately characterized the toxicological profile of JUUL products, including comparisons to combustible cigarettes and other vapor products, and believe this data, along with the totality of the evidence, meets the statutory standard of being "appropriate for the protection of the public health," Juul said.
