The Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency wants tighter regulations to prevent consumers from using marijuana-flavored electronic cigarettes or vapes.
On Friday, combined operatives of the PDEA Special Enforcement Service, Regional Office-National Capital Region-Southern District Office and Investigation Service, in collaboration with the Taguig City police, conducted separate anti-drug operations in Taguig City. Last week, the PDEA and the Bureau of Customs also intercepted 18 “balikbayan” boxes containing cannabis oil and marijuana kush hidden inside e-cigarettes worth P337 million at the Port Area, Manila.The selling and smuggling of marijuana oil cartridges indicates there is a growing domestic demand for these products, the agency said.
The PDEA warned the public not to patronize marijuana-laced e-cigarettes because of the health hazards involved, and most importantly the prohibition of the law, saying the surge of such illicit items can also expose unknowing customers to being addicted to marijuana.
