DENVER, Sept. 26, 2019 /PRNewswire/ — Medicine Man, which operates four recreational dispensaries and one medical dispensary in Colorado, has halted sales of all vape products that contain the ingredients propylene glycol or vitamin E acetate. This action comes on the heels of recent reports that found that chemical additives, such as vitamin E acetate, were associated with dangerous and deadly vaping-related respiratory illnesses characterized by severe pneumonia symptoms, shortness of breath, coughing, fever, fatigue, and respiratory failure.

Medicine Man has removed all vape products containing propylene glycol or vitamin E acetate from its shelves effective immediately and will continue to take precautionary steps to protect its consumers through rigorous monitoring of products available at its stores. It is committed to carrying products only of the highest quality and free of any potential chemical additives that are even remotely or potentially harmful.

“The decision to take this particular product off our shelves was significant, as the confidence and trust of our consumers is paramount to our core values,” said Medicine Man President and Chief Executive Officer Sally Vander Veer. “We were extremely pleased with the reception of our internal staff and budtenders, who recognized our dedication to quality and safety even at the expense of our bottom line. As pioneers in this space, we will continue to fight for what our consumers deserve. Hopefully the rest of the industry will also conclude that removing these cannabis products with the chemical additives under scrutiny from the market is in the best interest of consumers and all of us as operators.”
