Alert issued for cannabis gummies sold locally
(WKBN) — The Division of Cannabis Control (DCC) is issuing a product alert on one lot ofcannabis-infused edible gummies sold across the state, including here in the Valley.
The alert is for 'Strawberry Banana Local Edibles Ohio Cannabis Infused Gummy' processed by Farmaceutical RX, LLC, under the Local Edibles Ohio brand with purchase dates of Feb. 18 through March 12, 2025.
The local dispensaries where the product was sold include B Cubed Operations Ohio, otherwise known as the ACA Dispensary, in Hubbard; and FARMACEUTICALRX LLC in East Liverpool. For a full list of impacted dispensaries that sold the product, click here.
The reason for the alert is that the processor used an ingredient not disclosed on the product label: edible glitter.
Additionally, the processor was unable to provide evidence that the ingredient wasobtained from a licensed and regulated source, according to DCC.
While the presence of the edible glitter 'does not reasonable constitute a health hazard,' only an alert was issued in place of a full product recall.
Farmaceutical RX has pulled all affected product off of dispensary shelves. The DCC recommends that patients and consumers refrain from consuming the affected product, and either throw away the remainder or return it to the dispensary it was purchased from for refund.
