The Food and Drug Administration\u2019s recent decision to allow certain nicotine pouches<\/span> to be marketed as posing fewer health risks than cigarettes could potentially lead to the U.S. becoming smoke-free one day, according to one analyst.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The FDA said Tuesday it will let 20 of Swedish Match USA, Inc.\u2019s ZYN nicotine pouch products be\u00a0marketed to U.S. consumers with the risk modification claim that \u201cUsing ZYN instead of cigarettes puts you at a lower risk of mouth cancer, heart disease, lung cancer, stroke, emphysema, and chronic bronchitis,\u201d according to the agency\u2019s news release. (RELATED: <\/strong><\/span>Ex-Law Enforcement Discuss Cracking Down On Illicit Nicotine Flooding US)<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cFDA\u2019s review of modified risk products is intended to ensure that adult users have clear, science-based information about the relative harms of tobacco products, so they can make informed choices,\u201d Acting Director of the FDA\u2019s Center for Tobacco Products Bret Koplow said in a statement. \u201cToday\u2019s decision allows these products to be marketed with a modified risk claim that informs adults who smoke about the lower risks associated with these products.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The FDA\u2019s decision marks \u201can acknowledgement of reality,\u201d <\/span>according to Consumer Choice Center Policy Director<\/span>\u00a0David Clement.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s an acknowledgment that, obviously, these products are exponentially less risky than spoken cigarettes, and it\u2019s important that smokers trying to quit know that when they buy them,\u201d Clement told the Daily Caller News Foundation. \u201cAnd so this is a very positive step forward in terms of overall harm reduction, and it\u2019s a big step forward for anyone who cares about accuracy in marketing.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The FDA has currently authorized <\/span>26 nicotine pouch products in total, according to the agency\u2019s news release from Tuesday.<\/span><\/p>\n

Clement also suggested that adults having increased access to nicotine pouches could potentially result in the U.S. becoming a \u201csmoke-free\u201d nation in the future.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think that as time goes on, and as adults continue to have access to nicotine pouches, and especially nicotine pouches with flavors, the U.S. will be well on its way to be declared a smoke-free country,\u201d Clement explained. \u201cAnd what I mean by smoking is the under 5% threshold. Which, I believe \u2026 [has only been accomplished in] Sweden.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

When reached for comment, the FDA referred the DCNF to its statement from Tuesday.<\/p>\n

In 2025, Sweden achieved its goal of becoming smoke-free, with less than 5% of the country\u2019s total population smoking cigarettes on a daily basis, Medical Xpress reported\u00a0in May.<\/span><\/p>\n

Using Zyn pouches have become widely adopted by many figures in President Donald Trump\u2019s administration, including Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., The Wall Street Journal reported in May.<\/span><\/p>\n

A July 2024 study from the Keck School of Medicine of USC and the University of Nebraska Medical Center suggests that just 2.9% of U.S. adults had ever used nicotine pouches, with 0.4% reporting that they currently use them. Most respondents presently using nicotine pouches also currently smoke cigarettes, per the report.<\/span><\/p>\n

Worldwide retail sales of nicotine pouches climbed to 23.4 billion units total in 2024, marking an increase of over 50% from 2023, WIRED Middle East reported on Wednesday, citing\u00a0World Health Organization data.<\/span><\/p>\n

Some experts have warned of potential cardiovascular risks from using nicotine pouches. While many nicotine pouch products are marketed as being \u201cintended for individuals aged 21+ to help them quit using traditional tobacco products,\u201d recent research suggests that the biggest jump in using nicotine pouches has been among young individuals, according to the American Lung Association.<\/span><\/p>\n
