Recall Expanded of Some Marijuana Products Due to Possible Aspergillus

An Arizona marijuana establishment is recalling specific products due to possible contamination with Aspergillus, a fungus that can cause allergic reactions or infection, usually in people with pre-existing illness.

The Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) is expanding the Aspergillus recall to include Life Changers Investments’ Wedding Cake strain, batch WCSB080425.

ADHS is advising consumers to dispose of the products described in the table below, which were found in laboratory tests to be positive for Aspergillus.

To date, no illnesses have been reported. This announcement is being made out of an abundance of caution. Consumers who have purchased potentially contaminated products should not ingest, inhale, or otherwise consume them and should dispose of them. If you have already consumed any of the products and have any of the symptoms described below, please contact your healthcare provider or seek care in the event of an emergency.

Once ADHS discovered the potential contamination, they contacted the facility that produced the products. The licensee took immediate action to work with all distribution and retail partners to remove any potentially impacted products from store shelves. Possibly contaminated products are quarantined at the point of sale until secondary confirmatory testing is completed. ADHS works closely with licensees to ensure public safety as product concerns arise.
