Summary

Delta 8 Hemp, a Los Angeles online seller, was one of five companies that received the FDA's first warning letters involving delta-8 THC in May 2022. The letter, dated May 4, 2022, says the company's website sold delta-8 THC distillate, vape cartridges, disposable pens, tinctures and gummies. According to the FDA, the site promoted delta-8 THC for conditions including cancer, multiple sclerosis, lupus, HIV/AIDS, rheumatoid arthritis, migraines, anxiety and pain, which made the products unapproved new drugs under federal law. The agency also said the products were misbranded because they lacked adequate directions for use, and that the delta-8 gummies were adulterated foods. A response was requested within 15 working days. The FDA's announcement noted its concerns that delta-8 THC products can be intoxicating, have prompted adverse event reports and may come in packaging that appeals to children.
