## Details

- Record Type: WARNING_LETTER
- Company Name: AD and AD International, Ltd.
- Product Type: Tobacco
- Office Name: Department of Health and Human Services
- Summary: The FDA issued a Warning Letter to AD and AD International, Ltd. regarding their website, bestcigarettesshop.com, which offers cigarette products for sale to U.S. customers. The FDA determined several products are adulterated or misbranded under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act).

Specifically, products like Chesterfield, Epique, Karelia, and Kent cigarettes are deemed "modified risk tobacco products" because their advertising uses descriptors like "mild" or claims reduced levels of substances, reduced exposure, or being less harmful. These products are adulterated under section 902(8) of the FD&C Act as they are promoted without an FDA order.

Additionally, Kiss Fresh Apple Superslims, Kiss Strawberry Superslims, Rich Aroma Apple, Rich Aroma Rum & Cherry, and Sobranie Slims Mints cigarettes are adulterated under section 902(5) of the FD&C Act because they contain characterizing flavors (other than tobacco or menthol), which is prohibited for cigarettes as of September 22, 2009. If these products do not contain characterizing flavors, they are misbranded under section 903(a)(1) for false and misleading labeling.

The FDA requires immediate corrective actions and a written response within 15 working days detailing the steps taken to discontinue violative promotion, advertising, sale, and distribution of these products. Failure to comply may result
