FDA Rules ZYN Pouches Safer Than Cigarettes But Not Safe

The U.S. FDA has determined that ZYN nicotine pouches pose lower health risks than cigarettes, marking a key step in tobacco harm reduction. However, the agency emphasizes that "safer" does not mean "safe," as the pouches still deliver addictive nicotine. This ruling could reshape how nicotine products are marketed and regulated, impacting public health policy and consumer choices.
