CDC, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), state and local health departments, and other clinical and public health partners are investigating a multistate outbreak of lung injury associated with e-cigarette product (devices, liquids, refill pods, and/or cartridges) use.
If you are concerned about these specific health risks, CDC recommends that you consider refraining from using e-cigarette or vaping products.
If you use e-cigarette or vaping products:
| • |
Anyone who uses an e-cigarette or vaping product should not buy these products (e.g., e-cigarette or vaping products with THC or CBD oils) off the street and should not modify or add any substances to these products that are not intended by the manufacturer. |
| • |
See a healthcare provider right away if you have symptoms like those reported in this outbreak. |
If you are concerned about your health after using an e-cigarette product, contact your health care provider, or you can also call your local poison control center at 1-800-222-1222.
