FIRST
Myfreedomsmokes has A LOT of explaining to do.
The patient’s mother had previously purchased 1 L of unflavored nicotine Smoke Juice E-liquid online from http://myfreedomsmokes.com, marketed as “the highest grade nicotine available” and sold directly to consumers, packaged in a “laboratory use only” amber-colored glass bottle (Figure 2). This liquid comes prepared with a 50:50 base of propylene glycol:vegetable glycerin. The patient’s mother had then diluted this concentrated nicotine liquid at home with an equal volume of vegetable glycerin, purchased from the same Web site and diluted according to instructions she found online. The purchased liquid was labeled with a nicotine concentration of 60 mg/mL, and the patient’s mother believed she was diluting it 2-fold to an intended final concentration of 30 mg/mL. Unbeknownst to her husband, the patient’s mother had stored this final dilution in a readily available empty used ibuprofen bottle that she labeled “NIC” and stored in the refrigerator (Figure 1). The use of inappropriate and poorly labeled containers introduces obvious risk for unintentional exposures and dangerous adverse events.
Figure 2
Concentrated liquid nicotine purchased by the patient’s mother online, with commercial labeling advertising a total of 1 L of nicotine solution at 60 mg/mL.
Assuming the patient’s mother correctly diluted the commercial product by half with vegetable glycerin, the initial product’s nicotine concentration was 140.6 mg/mL, or 234% of advertised (60 mg/mL) (Figure 2). This finding supports previous work demonstrating that electronic cigarette refill containers may have unreliable commercial labeling and widely variable actual nicotine concentration compared with that advertised.Possible reasons for this discrepancy may include manufacturing error or lack of quality control. It remains unclear why this retailer packages its direct-to-consumer products in “laboratory use only” glass bottles. Possible explanations may include an appeal to a consumer’s desire for product purity, to circumvent regulations, or to encourage users to dilute the solution before use; regardless, these products are clearly intended for eventual personal use.
SECOND:
This story has all the great scary hype that creates good clickbait. lies, propaganda, child neglect & child endangerment that actually appears as a vaping problem when it's a really stupid set of parents' problem.
The only clickbait pointer that this article missed was that they didn't blame the Russians for anything. - 5150
And now for the child neglect & child endangerment:
The patient's mother had filled an empty ibuprofen bottle with liquid nicotine she mixed herself, using a combination of unflavored nicotine she purchased online and vegetable glycerin. The child's father, not realizing the ibuprofen bottle contained his wife's nicotine, administered a dose to his daughter for pain associated with a sprained ankle.
If I had been involved in this I would have begged the police to arrest me and my wife and charge us for this stupid, stupid crime.
Who here if they had children in the house would actually put their NIC Base in THIS?:

Used ibuprofen bottle filled with home preparation of liquid nicotine and labeled “NIC.”
Would you expect to be charged with child endangerment once your kid was given a dose of your nic base out of this bottle?
I would demand to be charged if I did something this stupid - 5150

With parents like that, it might be better to place the child in the custody of someone else.
