However, their detailed pharmacological effects have not yet been clarified. Some reports have previously described symptoms of poisoning, but only a few reports have so far described shock and myocardial damage (MD). We experienced a case of shock and MD in a patient who had smoked law-evading herbs. A 61-year-old male presented at an emergency department 8 hours after smoking law-evading herbs (Rush Trip, High Men Monster) with chest pain. A vasopressor agent was administered to treat shock and antiarrhythmic drugs were administered due to ventricular arrhythmia. The contents of the law-evading herbs were unknown, so an in-hospital follow-up was conducted to treat the patient's symptoms. The follow-up blood test showed an increased level of cardiac enzymes, which thereafter demonstrated a spontaneous remission. The systemic conditions tended to improve and the patient was discharged from the hospital on the 5th hospital day. The contents of the law-evading herbs in question were thereafter,analyzed, and synthetic cannabinoids (JWH-210, JWH-081 and JWH-122) as well as caffeine were detected. The cause for the poisoning symptoms were suspected to be the presence of synthetic cannabinoids and caffeine. Such law-evading herbs may contain synthetic cannabinoids and caffeine which both may induce shock and MD.</p>","PeriodicalId":10299,"journal":{"name":"Chudoku kenkyu : Chudoku Kenkyukai jun kikanshi = The Japanese journal of toxicology","volume":"27 4","pages":"333-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"33131296","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The patient complaining of frequent vomiting and weakness was transferred to our hospital. Findings on arrival: GCS E4V5M6; respiratory rate 24/ min; blood pressure 83/43 mmHg; pulse 152/min, regular; SpO₂97% (oxygen by mask: 6 L/min); thus, the patient was in shock. The systolic blood pressure and the pulse rate improved to about 90 mmHg and to about 130/min, respectively, in response to rapid intravenous infusion of 2,000 mL of lactated Ringer's solution. His circulatory condition tended to improve with parenteral fluid infusion alone. Forty hours after admission, however, heart failure developed due to excessive I.V. fluid infusion and abnormal body fluid distribution associated with delayed vascular smooth muscle relaxation; therefore, mechanical ventilation was initiated. Simultaneously, intravenous noradrenaline infusion was started because of a fall of the blood pressure. Subsequently, as the patient's respiratory and circulatory conditions gradually improved, he was weaned from mechanical ventilation, and the noradrenaline infusion was discontinued at 108 hours after admission. The patient made favorable progress and was discharged home on the 9th hospital day. Minoxidil exerts adverse effects mainly on the cardiovascular system. Since minoxidil is an over-the-counter drug readily available to the public, and emergency physicians should be aware of its severe toxicity.</p>","PeriodicalId":10299,"journal":{"name":"Chudoku kenkyu : Chudoku Kenkyukai jun kikanshi = The Japanese journal of toxicology","volume":"27 3","pages":"208-12"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"34309417","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
