However, it cautioned that this merely temporarily suspends the prohibition and does not reverse it.

The FDA stated on Twitter that "the agency has found that there are scientific issues specific to the JUUL application that need extra examination."

The government went on to say that the stay "does not constitute authority to market, sell, or ship JUUL products."

In June, the FDA imposed a federal ban on Juul products after determining that Juul's parent firm Altria had not provided enough safety information.

The FDA initially issued the federal ban because the Juul company could not “demonstrate that marketing of the products would be appropriate for the protection of the public health.”

In its statement at the time, the health organization stated that the vaping company's "applications lacked sufficient evidence about the toxicological profile of the goods to indicate that marketing of the products would be appropriate for the protection of the public health."

A federal appeals court granted a temporary stay of the FDA order the day following the ban while the court reviewed the matter. The brief reprieve will be in effect at least through July 12.
