The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is investigation after 127 reports of users of electronic vaporizer cigarettes, many of them teenagers and young adults, suffered seizures after using the devices, CNBC reports.
Earlier the year, the agency asked the general public to report any instances of seizures after “vaping” – that is, using the machines. At the time, the agency was investigating a few dozen such cases, However, since the agency asked for reports, another 92 such reports came in, bringing to 127 the number of such cases.
The agency cautions that the reports span a ten-year period, and it’s not clear, as of this writing, if all, or even any, of the seizures are directly attributable to vaping.
