CONSUMER ADVISORY NOTICE: CBN-Containing Products
We are committed to keeping our patients and customers informed and providing clear, transparent information about the products we offer. This notice is not a product recall. We are sharing this information to explain an updated regulatory requirement affecting the labeling of certain products containing Cannabinol (CBN).
Cannabinol (CBN) is a naturally occurring cannabinoid found in the cannabis plant and is recognized by the Minnesota Office of Cannabis Management (OCM) as a nonintoxicating cannabinoid.
Under Minnesota regulations, certain production methods used to convert one cannabinoid into another may cause the resulting cannabinoid to be classified as artificially derived. OCM has determined that the CBN used in certain products meets this definition based on the supplier’s production method.
There has been no change to the CBN ingredient, the supplier, or the way the ingredient is produced. This determination applies to CBN that was already being used in select products.
Products included in this notice:
- Incredibles Snoozzeberry 5:1 Gummies – 100 mg THC : 20 mg CBN
- Incredibles Snoozzzierberry 2:1:1 Gummies – 100 mg THC : 50 mg CBN : 50 mg CBG
- Dr. Solomon’s Doze 1:1 Tincture – 50 mg THC : 50 mg CBN
- Beboe Sweet Dreams Raspberry Plum 5:1 Gummies – 100 mg THC : 20 mg CBN
Moving forward, products containing this CBN will be labeled in accordance with Minnesota regulatory requirements and will include the following statement: “Contains artificially derived cannabinoids. Not all safety hazards have been evaluated.” We remain committed to meeting Minnesota’s regulatory requirements and providing patients and customers with clear and accurate information about the products we offer.

CONTRAINDICATIONS: Women should not consume cannabis during pregnancy or while
breastfeeding except on the advice of the physician who issued a medical cannabis certification and, in the case of breastfeeding, the infant’s pediatrician. Extreme caution is advised in patients with a personal or family history of schizophrenia or other psychiatric conditions.
UNWANTED SIDE EFFECTS: As with any drug, symptoms of tolerance, dependence, withdrawal
and substance abuse should be monitored closely. Possible side effects related to your product usage may include feeling dizzy or tired, eating more than usual, dry mouth, loss of balance, altered motivation, red eye, or change in pulse or blood pressure. Uncommon side effects include acute panic reaction, paranoia, fainting or stomach pains. This product may also affect the way other medications work in your body. If you feel that your cannabis usage is negatively affecting your daily life, relationships or job, please contact your healthcare provider or the MN Addiction Hotline (details below).
SERIOUS ADVERSE EVENTS: If you experience a medical or life-threatening emergency, immediately call 911 or go to your nearest emergency room. When possible, please call 1-800-984-5936 to report this event to RISE Dispensaries.
TOLERANCE: Tolerance is the state in which the body will need more active ingredients over time to achieve the same physiological response as was previously experienced at a lower dose. Every person who uses cannabis will become tolerant over time, requiring increased dosage to achieve the desired effect. Tolerance can be managed by occasional “drug holidays” where no cannabis is consumed. This will allow the receptors in the body to return to a baseline level.
DEPENDENCE: Persons using cannabis may become dependent. Dependence differs from addiction. Dependence is a physical condition in which a person would experience withdrawal symptoms if cannabis was abruptly discontinued. Withdrawal symptoms can include the following:
- Irritability
- Alteration in Mood
- Difficulty Sleeping
- Decreased Appetite
Withdrawal from cannabis is typically mild. Symptoms generally peak within one week and typically do not last longer than 2 weeks.
ADDICTION: Chronic daily use of cannabinoids may result in psychological addiction. Signs of addiction are the inability to stop using cannabis products even though it interferes with many aspects of your life. If concerned about withdrawal, dependence, or substance abuse, immediately consult your
physician. Always consult your physician when making decisions to start or discontinue cannabis use or if you are experiencing any adverse reactions.
