Cyclical vomiting, Cannabis, HyperemesisAbstract
Cyclical vomiting secondary to cannabis use, characterized by recurrent episodes of nausea and vomiting, with a stereotyped pattern, which improve with hot baths, is related to chronic cannabis use. Since 2004, numerous cases have been described, although little is said about their evolution, which is closely related to active use. The high consumption of cannabis means that this diagnosis must be considered, as well as the need for prolonged abstinence for its resolution.References
