Patients or caregivers who have these affected vape cartridges in their possession should return them to Plan B Wellness for proper disposal. Plan B Wellness must notify patients or caregivers that purchased these vape cartridges of the recall.

Following a nationwide outbreak of vaping-related lung illness nationwide, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) identified Vitamin E Acetate as the likely culprit in many cases. Vitamin E acetate is sometimes used as a thickener in vaping fluid. And while vitamin E is safe as a vitamin pill or to use on the skin, inhaling oily droplets can be harmful, doctors say. 

Anyone who who has experienced symptoms after using these recalled products is urged to call their health care provider. 

Patients and caregivers can report adverse product reactions to the MRA by sending an email to MRA-Enforcement@michigan.gov, or by calling 517-284-8599.
