The FDA Is Investigating 127 Reports Of Seizures And Neurological Symptoms Related To Vaping

The FDA is looking into more than 127 cases of people having seizures and neurological symptoms after vaping.

On Wednesday, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration said it received 127 reports of seizures or other neurological symptoms possibly related to e-cigarettes. However, Investigators have yet to officially confirm the symptoms and seizures are directly related to vaping.

“The FDA is continuing its scientific investigation to determine if there’s a direct relationship between the use of e-cigarettes and a risk of seizure or other neurological symptoms,” said Dr. Ned Sharpless, the acting FDA commissioner.

The cases were reported between 2010 and 2019; some people have also reported fainting as one of the symptoms. Sharpless said that “we still don’t have enough information to determine if e-cigarettes are causing these reported incidents” but is requesting the public to continue submitting reports.

Additional information “may help us identify common risk factors and determine whether any specific e-cigarette product attributes, such as nicotine content or formulation, may be more likely to contribute to seizures,” he said.
