You should look to have a legal team or at least one person that can deal with legalities but as the business owner you should research some laws for your country and any that you are thinking to sell in. Obviously with an online business you will have to think about where you are shipping to and whether you can ship their legally and what the laws may be in terms of dosages and strengths etc.
