Michigan Issues Multiple-Marijuana Product Recalls Due to Presence of Harsh Chemical Detected

A recall was issued by the Michigan state Marijuana Regulatory Agency (MRA) for several products tested by a facility that was liquidated two weeks ago. The products include syringes of the marijuana concentrate Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) Monster X; Glue Buds, a strain of marijuana flower; Savage Signature OG Budder marijuana concentrate, and the Diamond OG Platinum Vape cartridge.

These products were tested at a Wall Lake Marijuana Testing facility that was shut down by the state couple of weeks ago when it failed to meet the established safety standards. The recall was issued due to the existence of

• Bifenazate chemical residue in the RSO

• Heavy metal Arsenic in the Savage Signature
• Heavy metal Chromium found in the Platinum

The MRA howbeit has apprised that various health issues could result from the use of these products, including coughing, wheezing, decreased pulmonary , nausea, vomiting, abnormal heart rhythm, and damage to blood vessels. Anyone who has purchased these products is strongly recommended to destroy them or return them to the place they were purchased, however, no unpropitious reactions to these products have been reported yet.
