VISIONS AND HALLUCINATIONS

This book, which covers Visions and hallucinations, explains what causes them and summarises how many hallucinations have been caused by each event or activity. It also provides specific help with questions people have asked us, such as ‘Is my medication giving me hallucinations?’.

Introduction and description

 

Anti-emetics aim to treat nausea and feelings of sickness, as well as helping with actual vomiting. 

They may be used in cases of motion sickness or following treatment by, for example, chemotherapy. 

Generally if one is sick  - nauseous or vomiting - there is a good reason - one has ingested a toxin and it needs to be expelled, however, occasionally the toxin has been given to us by the medical profession in the first place!

Side effects

There is something very odd happening in the prescribing of this class of drugs.  Given that the class is intended to be used as a one-off treatment for the nausea being suffered by people who need very temporary help, whilst the cause is identified, one would expect any side effects to be only experienced once.  But the ehealthme website shows that for a drug like Ondansetron, for example, there are side-effects that last for years.  The table below is an extract from one that lists symptoms that continue for over ten years.

Ondansetron , originally marketed under the brand name Zofran, is a serotonin 5-HT3 receptor antagonist used to prevent nausea and vomiting caused by cancer chemotherapy, radiation therapy, surgery and gastroenteritis. 

Not only does this table appear to imply it does not prevent nausea or vomiting, but all sorts of long term effects appear to follow.

If we now take another drug Metoclopramide and look at the most frequently occurring side-effects we find:

Most common side effects by gender  :

Female Male
Tardive Dyskinesia Tardive Dyskinesia
Extrapyramidal Disorder Extrapyramidal Disorder
Nervous System Disorder Nervous System Disorder
Dystonia Dystonia
Pain Pain
Anxiety Anxiety
Movement Disorder Activities Of Daily Living Impaired
Activities Of Daily Living Impaired Movement Disorder
Dyskinesia Dyskinesia
Deformity Nausea

We can see that in males at least it does not prevent nausea, it appears to cause it.

 

Death

One would not expect that a class of drug designed to stop you being sick caused deaths, but it would appear from the information recorded on eHealthme, using Adverse Drug Reports sent by doctors to the FDA and SEDA, that they do, here are the figures:

How it works

 
 

A number of differently acting drugs are often grouped together within this class making it difficult to work out what is actually going on when anyone gets an hallucination or other experience.

Some drugs based on scopolamine, for example, are classed as anti-emetics, as are some based on serotonin antagonistic action. Thus one has to look at the observations to work out why the hallucinations took place.

Tropisetron  -  is a serotonin 5-HT3 receptor antagonist used mainly as an antiemetic to treat nausea and vomiting following chemotherapy, although it has been used experimentally as an analgesic in cases of fibromyalgia. It is marketed in Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Korea and the Philippines as Navoban, but is not available in the U.S, hence no figures for hallucinations are available

Domperidone (INN, USAN, BAN, JAN) (trade names Motilium, Motillium, Motinorm Costi, Nomit, Brulium Molax) is a medication that acts as a peripherally-selective antagonist of the dopamine D2 and D3 receptors. It is given in order to relieve nausea and vomiting . As a European drug figures are ot available from eHealthme.

Alizapride (Litican, Plitican, Superan, Vergentan) is a dopamine antagonist used in the treatment of nausea and vomiting, including postoperative nausea and vomiting.  No figures were available.

Cyclizine is an antihistamine drug used to treat nausea, vomiting and dizziness associated with motion sickness, vertigo and post-operatively following administration of general anaesthesia and opioids.  No figures were available from eHealthme, but Wikipedia says "Some people have combined cyclizine with their methadone dose, ... to produce strong psychoactive effects. It has also been used recreationally for its anticholinergic effects to induce hallucinations."
