The Marijuana Regulatory Agency has issued a recall for any vape cartridges containing Vitamin E Acetate. 

Many of these products were sold from Plan B Wellness, located on 20101 8 Mile Road in Detroit. Most of them were sold late 2019. 

The substances has failed safety compliance testing in August. According to a news release, these cartridges were made before November 2019, when the rules for marijuana products were filed in the state.

The vape cartridges will all have a license number of the marijuana facility on it. They will also have a tag number that is followed by a statewide monitoring system.

MRA suggests customers and patients to return the affected products to Plan B Wellness, who will properly dispose them. The store will also contact customers who have bought these items.
