“…The mechanism of this emetic response to what is usually a valuable anti-emetic and appetite stimulant is not well understood but may be a disruption of the extensive endocannabinoid system by acting on the CB1 receptors when patients take high doses of THC [ 3 ]. This dysregulation may explain why the usual anti-emetic drugs are not very efficacious and better results are seen using anxiolytics, antipsychotics and thermotherapy with topical capsaicin or hydro-thermotherapy, like hot showers [ 4 ]. It is believed that thermotherapy relieves symptoms also by the relationship between THC and the thermoregulatory centers in the hypothalamus.…”

“…Activation of CB1 receptors in the hypothalamic axis can theoretically alter the thermoregulatory sensations initiating the need to take hot showers [ 5 ]. Additionally, the only effective prophylactic treatment is the cessation of cannabis use [ 4 ].…”

“…Bei Personen, die regelmäßig Cannabinoide konsumieren (v. a. Rauchen von Produkten aus Cannabis) kann es zu episodischer, stereotyp akut auftretender Übelkeit mit Erbrechen und abdominellen Schmerzen kommen (Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome, CHS). CHS spricht typischerweise nicht oder nur unzureichend auf konventionelle Antiemetika und Analgetika an, bessert sich aber deutlich beim warmen Duschen oder Baden 50 , 51 . Mögliche prokonvulsive Effekte (Senkung der „Krampfschwelle“ mit höherem Risiko für epileptische Anfälle) des akuten Cannabinoidkonsums werden seit Jahren diskutiert, insbesondere im Zusammenhang mit dem Konsum synthetischer Cannabinoide 52 .…”

“…In chronic use and re-intoxication, it is suggested that THC competitively antagonizes physiological full agonists produced by the ECS [23]. However, CHS has been reported in users of synthetic cannabinoids [24], such as Spice and K2, which are full agonists of CB1 [13], casting doubt on this proposed mechanism. More plausible may be that long-term exposure to endogenous cannabinoids causes CB1 receptors to be downregulated and desensitized in the brain, and that these effects then block the usual antiemetic action of the ECS.…”

“…Diagnosis may be hampered by nonspecific clinical findings, a lack of confirmatory test and the challenges of obtaining a detailed substance use history in adolescents. Diagnostic criteria are available for both adults [12 pathognomonically reported with bathing in hot (>438C) water (hydrothermotherapy) [13]. Various other pharmacological treatments have been reported in the literature, including dopamine receptor blockers, benzodiazepines and capsaicin cream.…”
