The Maine Office of Cannabis Policy (OCP) has issued a health and safety recall for vape cartridges that were sold in the state over the past three months.

According to the OCP, there was a consumer complaint about an adverse health reaction to Yani adult-use vape cartridges of the strain “watermelon chimera.”

The OCP said it conducted testing on the products, which revealed the batch contained unsafe levels of the pesticide chlorfenapyr. Inhaling cannabis containing unsafe levels of chlorfenapyr can lead to high fever, sweating, nausea, vomiting and/or altered mental status, according to state officials.

The affected 0.5-gram and 1-gram live resin vape cartridges were at 21 adult-use retail stores across Maine between July 10 and Oct. 16. The stores they were sold at are listed below.

Consumers who purchased the affected products should return them to the retailer or dispose of them.
