Join us on March 19 (12pm PT) for our next webinar, featuring renowned expert Ethan Russo, MD, in a session co-sponsored by the University of Washington Addictions, Drug & Alcohol Institute's Cannabis Education & Research Program (CERP)!
In this session, titled Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome (CHS): Understanding an Emerging Public Health Challenge, Dr. Russo will provide an overview of Cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome (CHS), a constellation of intractable vomiting, and abdominal pain and hot bathing behavior that solely occurs in the context of certain heavy chronic use of THC-predominant cannabis, including synthetic cannabinoids.
He'll also discuss theories of its cause, including several that have been debunked, describe the serious nature of the condition (which causes considerable illness and even death), and talk about ways to provide symptomatic relief.
