NEW YORK, NY (WCBS) — A federal crackdown has taken effect on the sale of most flavored cartridges for e-cigarettes.

The new FDA policy prohibits companies from making and selling all cartridge flavors except tobacco and menthol.

Stores can continue to sell flavored e-liquid and disposables.

The crackdown aims to reduce vaping by young people.

The FDA is giving businesses until mid-May to comply with the new rules before they could face fines.
