Philip Morris International has applied to commercialize a new
line of cigarette alternatives which use heated tobacco.
The Stamford, Conn.-based tobacco company said Friday it had
submitted Premarket Tobacco Product Applications and Modified Risk
Tobacco Product Applications for its IQOS Iluma product to the Food
and Drug Administration
The premarket application is required before selling any new
tobacco product in the U.S. The modified risk application,
meanwhile, certifies that the new product reduces exposure to
harmful chemicals.
The IQOS Iluma products heat up tobacco, but don't burn it.
Previous versions of the IQOS line of products were authorized
for sale. The company said Iluma products are already available in
27 markets around the world.
