This letter is to advise you that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reviewed your website at the Internet address https://nicandjetfuel.com/ in November 2025. The FDA has observed that your website offers “Nicotina Energy Citrus Surge Lite 3 MG” and “Nicotina Energy Grapefruit Spark Lite 3 MG” for sale in the United States. Based on our review, these products are unapproved new drugs under section 505(a) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act), 21 U.S.C. 355(a). As explained further below, introducing or delivering these products for introduction into interstate commerce violates sections 301(d) and 505(a) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 331(d) and 355(a).
Based on a review of your website, your “Nicotina Energy Citrus Surge Lite 3 MG” and “Nicotina Energy Grapefruit Spark Lite 3 MG” products are drugs under section 201(g)(1) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 321(g)(1), because they are intended for use in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease, and/or intended to affect the structure or any function of the body. Examples from your product labeling, including on your website, that provide evidence of the intended use (as defined in 21 CFR 201.128) of these products as drugs include, but may not be limited to, the following:

Several studies have found improved reaction times, attention span, and short-term memory in test subjects using small doses.”• “Mood Stabilizationo Low-dose nicotine has been observed to improve mood, particularly under stress. It can enhance the brain’s reward system without the overstimulation seen in traditional energy drinks or synthetic compounds.”
Your “Nicotina Energy Citrus Surge Lite 3 MG” and “Nicotina Energy Grapefruit Spark Lite 3 MG” products are “new drugs” under section 201(p) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 321(p), because they are not generally recognized as safe and effective (GRASE) for use under the above-described conditions prescribed, recommended, or suggested in their labeling. Subject to certain exceptions not applicable here, a new drug may not be introduced or delivered for introduction into interstate commerce without an approved application from FDA in effect, as described in section 505(a) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 355(a). No approved applications pursuant to section 505 of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 355, are in effect for these products. Accordingly, these products are unapproved new drugs. The introduction or delivery for introduction into interstate commerce of these unapproved new drug products violates sections 301(d) and 505(a) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 331(d) and 355(a).
Furthermore, please note that if you take corrective actions such that your products are no longer drugs, your products may meet the definition of a tobacco product under section 201(rr)(1) of the FD&C Act and thus would be required to comply with the FD&C Act and its implementing regulations relating to tobacco products.1 For instance, generally, to be legally marketed in the United States, the FD&C Act requires “new tobacco products” to have a premarket authorization order in effect. A “new tobacco product” is any tobacco product that was not commercially marketed in the United States as of February 15, 2007, or any modified tobacco product that was commercially marketed after February 15, 2007 (section 910(a) of the FD&C Act; 21 U.S.C. § 387j(a)). Generally, a marketing authorization order under section 910(c)(1)(A)(i) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. § 387j(c)(1)(A)(i)) is required for a new tobacco product unless (1) the manufacturer of the product submitted a report under section 905(j) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. § 387e(j)) and FDA issues an order finding the product substantially equivalent to a predicate tobacco product (section 910(a)(2)(A) of the FD&C Act) or (2) the manufacturer submitted a report under section 905(j)(1)(A)(ii) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. § 387e(j)(1)(A)(ii)) and all modifications are covered by exemptions from the requirements of substantial equivalence granted by FDA under section 905(j)(3) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. § 387e(j)(3)). All new tobacco products on the market without the statutorily required premarket authorization are marketed unlawfully and are subject to enforcement action at FDA’s discretion including, but not limited to, civil money penalties, seizure, and/or injunction.
In addition, products that meet the definition of a food under section 201(f) of the FD&C Act must comply with the requirements and prohibitions applicable to foods. Many substances intentionally added to beverages and other conventional foods are food additives. Food additives require premarket approval based on data demonstrating safety. Any unapproved food additive used in a beverage or other conventional food causes the food to be adulterated under section 402(a)(2)(C) of the FD&C Act. Adulterated foods cannot be legally imported or marketed in the United States.
