HSE warns people to stop using three vapes which are mislabelled as having no nicotine
The HSE warns against three vapes falsely labeled as "no nicotine," containing high nicotine levels. Products include Crystal Bling 6000+, McKesse MK Bar 7000, and JNR Crystal Pro Max 5000+. Consumers feeling unwell should contact a GP and notify HSE via [email protected]. The vapes exceed permitted nicotine concentrations and liquid volumes, risking consumer safety. HSE emphasizes retailers' responsibility in verifying product compliance to prevent harm and legal breaches. Distributors and importers are advised to ensure proper safety, quality, and labeling of e-cigarettes. Retailers importing from non-EU countries must comply with regulations. Vigilance in product checks is crucial to protect public health, HSE emphasizes.
