A multi-market comparison of composition, formulation, and label content of CBD e-liquids.

ABSTRACT: The prevalence of electronically vaporized cannabidiol (CBD) use is rising in many countries. However, few regulatory frameworks exist for inhaled CBD, and this lack of oversight may not protect consumers from adverse consequences. We generated a representative map of several global consumer vaporized CBD markets by collating data concerning cannabinoid levels, including CBD and Δ⁹-tetrahydrocannabinol, from the scientific literature.

E-liquid CBD concentration commonly differed from the labeled amount, in one case by >200%, and fell outside a ±10% tolerance. Other cannabinoids, including Δ⁹-tetrahydrocannabinol, were commonly
