The Arizona Department of Health Services is issuing a voluntary recall of marijuana products due to possible contamination with Aspergillus, a fungus that can cause allergic reactions or infection, according to a release.
The product under recall is Life Changers Invstments LLC strain of Wedding Cake, Batch number WCSB080425 in plant, flower, concentrates and extracts form.
Also under a previous recall is Eba Holdings' strain of Scrooge, Batch number 250310S-100 in plant and flower form.
ADHS is advising consumers to dispose of the products, which were found in laboratory tests to be positive for Aspergillus, the release said.
Aspergillus can cause allergic reactions or infection, usually in people already sick with something else. Symptoms range from asthma or cold-like symptoms to fever and chest pain, among many others.
To date, no illnesses have been reported. This announcement is being made out of an abundance of caution, officials said.
Consumers who have purchased potentially contaminated products should not ingest, inhale, or otherwise consume them and should dispose of them. Anyone who has already consumed any of the products and have any of the symptoms described below, contact a health care provider or seek care in the event of an emergency.
Consumers may contact the dispensary or establishment where they purchased the products listed below if they have any questions.
