The Maine Office of Cannabis Policy has issued a health and safety recall for a cannabis vape due to unsafe pesticide levels.

The recall is for Yani adult use vape cartridges of the strain "Watermelon Chimera."

The affected products were produced by NorCO Outdoor Cannabis and sold at 21 adult use retail stores located in Auburn, Augusta, Bangor, Bethel, Carrabassett Valley, Chelsea, Damariscotta, Eliot, Fairfield, Guilford, Lewiston, Milo, Peru, Portland, Presque Isle, Rockland, Stratton, Thomaston, and Waterville.

Following an investigation into a consumer complaint about an adverse health reaction, the Maine Office of Cannabis Policy says the cartridges were found to have 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.

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

Any consumer who has ingested these products and is experiencing symptoms or adverse reactions should contact a healthcare provider immediately or dial 911 if there is a medical emergency.
