The FDA said this week that it is investigating 127 incidents of people suffering from seizures after vaping. The news highlights the elevated risk e-cigarette products pose for legal violations, and why payment service providers should know about the many types of products and parts related to vaping to better monitor their portfolios. 

The FDA’s announcement comes four months after the administration stated it was investigating the issue after initial reports of adverse effects. Reports of seizures or other neurological symptoms occurred between 2010 and 2019.
