Formula Swiss, a Swiss CBD company founded in 2013, have raised concerns over the Veterinary Medicines Directorate (VMD) in the United Kingdom for stopping shipments of their products, claiming they are “unauthorized veterinary medicines.”
The company is referring to their Formula Swiss Raw CBD Oil Drops in Hemp Seed Oil 500 mg, 0.2% THC, which has been registered in the Submit Cosmetic Product Notifications portal with the UK cosmetic product number UKCP-81209741 since 2021.
CEO of Formula Swiss, Robin Roy Krigslund-Hansen, commented on the situation: “Our products are clearly described and registered for topical usage, not for veterinary medicine. The actions of the VMD are not only incorrect but also damaging to our brand and our loyal customer base.”
The company is now considering taking legal action against the VMD to prevent any further damage to their brand. They are urging the VMD to correct their errors immediately to ensure the integrity of regulatory bodies.
