The Texas Department of State Health Services will reclassify Delta-8 THC and several other hemp-derived THC isomers as controlled substances on July 31, Usa Today reported. The change ends the sale of products containing those compounds on store shelves in the state. The Texas Supreme Court lifted a yearslong injunction in May and dismissed the underlying case in June.
Those actions removed the legal barrier to enforcement of the department's 2021 rule. ” The definitions cover products that contain Delta-8, Delta-10, Delta-6, and THCP. The Texas Hemp Business Council advised members in a July 15 social media post to review inventory and prepare to remove or sell through affected products before the July 31 date.
