The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported that between January and May of this year, poison centers in 48 states reported receiving a 229 percent increase in calls related to synthetic cannabinoid use.<\/p>\n

The CDC\u2019s findings, \u201cIncrease in Reported Adverse Health Effects Related to Synthetic Cannabinoid Use \u2014 United States, January\u2013May 2015,\u201ddiscusses the increase and the adverse health effects associated with their use. The report can be found in the CDC\u2019s \u201cMorbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n

The CDC counted 3,572 calls related to synthetic cannabinoid use. During the same time frame last year, poison centers responded to 1,085 calls.<\/p>\n

The 2015 figures included a spike of 1,501 calls in April, and 15 reported deaths, a three-fold increase over the five deaths that were reported in 2014.<\/p>\n

Most calls concerned use among males. Among 3,442 (96.4 percent) calls where age of the user was recorded, the median age was 26 years.<\/p>\n

Inhalation by smoking was the most common means of consumption, followed by ingestion.\u00a0 Among 626 calls reporting use of synthetic cannabinoids with multiple substances, the most commonly reported other substances included alcohol, plant-derived marijuana, and benzodiazepines.<\/p>\n

Synthetic cannabinoids include various psychoactive chemicals or a mixture of such chemicals that are sprayed onto plant material, which is then smoked or ingested to achieve a \u201chigh.\u201d These products are known by a variety of names such as synthetic marijuana, spice, K2, black mamba, and crazy clown and are sometimes sold in retail outlets as herbal products.<\/p>\n

The most commonly reported adverse health effects associated with synthetic cannabinoid use were agitation, tachycardia, drowsiness or lethargy, vomiting, and confusion.<\/p>\n

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is concerned about the rapid increase in poison center calls about synthetic cannabinoids and adverse health effects reported, suggesting a need for enhanced efforts to remove these products from the marketplace. People who have these products in their home are encouraged to dispose of them in a trash can that is not accessible to pets.<\/p>\n
