With upsurge, PDEA warns vs. marijuana-flavored vapes

The Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency has cautioned the public against the use of vaping products that contain marijuana oil, stressing that it is illegal and poses a health risk to users.In a statement over the weekend, PDEA said their recent anti-illegal drugs operations revealed that there is an upsurge of marijuana-laced electronic cigarettes in the Philippine market.

“The selling and smuggling of marijuana oil-cartridges indicate that there is a growing domestic demand for these products. Considering that the vaping culture is predominantly popular among the youth, PDEA is wary that these cannabis extracts can pass off as a legitimate vape aerosol in the market and sold to the younger patrons,” PDEA said.
