WARNING LETTER

August 25, 2025

RE: 710151

Dear Privacy Compliance Officer:

This letter is to advise you that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reviewed your website at the Internet address https://www.gr33n.com/ in June 2025. The FDA has observed that your websites offer “Jimerito Honey Eye Drops” for sale in the United States. We have also reviewed your social media account at https://www.instagram.com/trygr33n/ where you direct consumers to your https://www.gr33n.com/ website to purchase your product. Based on our review, this product is an unapproved new drug under section 505(a) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act), 21 U.S.C. 355(a). As explained further below, introducing or delivering this product for introduction into interstate commerce violates sections 301(d) and 505(a) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 331(d) and 355(a).

Your “Jimerito Honey Eye Drops” product is especially concerning from a public health perspective. Ophthalmic drug products, which are intended for administration into the eyes, in general pose a greater risk of harm to users because the route of administration for these products bypasses some of the body’s natural defenses.

Based on a review of your websites, your “Jimerito Honey Eye Drops” is a drug under section 201(g)(1) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 321(g)(1), because it is intended for use in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease, and/or intended to affect the structure or any function of the body. Examples of claims from your websites that provide evidence of the intended use of this product as a drug include, but may not be limited to, the following:

On your “Jimerito Honey Eye Drops” product page https://www.gr33n.com/products/jimeritohoney-eye-drops?variant=44243932217534:

With certain exceptions not applicable here, a new drug may not be introduced or delivered for introduction into interstate commerce without an approved application from FDA in effect, as described in section 505(a) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 355(a). There is no FDA-approved application pursuant to section 505 of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 355, in effect for this product. Accordingly, the introduction or delivery for introduction into interstate commerce of this product violates sections 301(d) and 505(a) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 331(d) and 355(a).
