FTC & FDA Take Action Against Misleading Delta-8 THC Packaging

FTC & FDA Take Action Against Misleading Delta-8 THC Packaging

Author: Cannabis Radio August 28, 2024 Duration: 39:04

Blunt Business welcomes Tucker Herndon, managing partner at Burr & Forman, who addressed the FTC and FDA's issuance of cease and desist letters to companies marketing Delta-8 THC products that mimic children's snacks. This raises compliance concerns with the Federal Trade Commission Act and the Food Drug Act, highlighting the lack of a clear regulatory framework for hemp-derived products. Herndon noted the potential risks of federal oversight that could override state regulations and emphasized the importance of companies adjusting their marketing practices to prioritize consumer safety over profit. The discussion concluded with Herndon outlining Burr & Forman’s services in regulatory compliance, urging industry players to adhere to laws and proactively engage with authorities to mitigate risks associated with potential regulatory changes.
