Implication

Case report reveals recurrent generalized seizures in a young man exposed to MDMB-FUBINACA via vaping, highlighting severe toxicity risks of mislabeled cannabis products.

Key Points

To report a case of recurrent generalized tonic–clonic seizures triggered by inadvertent exposure to the synthetic cannabinoid MDMB-FUBINACA through an electronic cigarette.
Clinical assessment of a young male presenting with recurrent generalized seizures after using an e-liquid product labeled as containing THC.
Toxicological investigation using liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) to identify chemical compounds in the exposure source.
High-resolution mass spectrometry confirmed the presence of MDMB-FUBINACA, an indazole carboxamide synthetic cannabinoid and potent CB1/CB2 receptor agonist.
Vaping the mislabeled e-liquid caused life-threatening recurrent generalized seizures, demonstrating the neurotoxic risk of reemerging synthetic cannabinoids on recreational markets.
