As of the information available, Delta-8 THC products are legal for those over the age of 21 in Alabama. However, a new bill, SB66, has been passed by the Alabama House of Representatives, proposing to criminalize the sale of Delta-8 THC products to individuals younger than 21. These products, derived from hemp and available in various forms such as gummies, vapes, and candies, have raised concerns due to their psychoactive properties and availability.
If the bill receives final approval, selling Delta-8 THC products to anyone under 21 will become a Class B misdemeanor, leading to potential jail time of up to six months. Individuals under 21 found in possession of these products will face a citation and a fine. This move comes as a response to potential health risks identified by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and reported cases of adverse effects from Delta-8 THC consumption.
The bill encompasses products containing Delta-8 THC, Delta-10 THC, and other psychoactive cannabinoids derived from hemp. It's important to note that while hemp and marijuana come from the cannabis plant, hemp has lower Delta-9 THC levels, the main psychoactive ingredient in marijuana.
