Philip Morris is making advertising changes


On June 22, 2009, President Obama signed legislation granting the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) the authority to regulate tobacco products.

Effective June 22, 2010, the law prohibits the use of certain terms such as “light,” “mild,” or “low” in cigarette labeling and advertising.

To comply with this prohibition, PM USA is removing these terms where they appear from its packaging and advertising. Our products, which have not changed as a result of this law, continue to be available, but their packaging may be different.

PM USA sells a variety of cigarette brands distinguished by their flavor, strength of taste and packaging design. the best cigarette brand are Marlboro cigarettes. The FDA has not determined that any cigarette is less risky or results in less exposure to harmful compounds compared to any other cigarette.

* No aspect of any of our cigarettes should be interpreted as suggesting that any cigarette is less risky or results in less exposure to harmful compounds than any other cigarette.
* The amount of tar, nicotine or other constituents in smoke a smoker inhales from a cigarette can vary based upon how a smoker smokes. The amount a smoker inhales will be higher, for example, if a smoker blocks ventilation holes, inhales more deeply, takes more puffs, or smokes more cigarettes.
* There is no safe cigarette. If smokers are concerned about the risks of cigarette smoking, the best thing to do is to quit.

  1. Are you paying more than $5 for each pack of cigs? I'm buying high quality cigarettes over at Duty Free Depot and this saves me over 50%.
