Abstract in brief

This systematic review and meta-analysis examined whether oral cannabinoids are effective and safe for preventing chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV), finding they are more effective than placebo or other antiemetics in controlling nausea and vomiting.
The evidence suggests oral cannabinoids have similar efficacy to existing treatments, but they are associated with side effects such as dysphoria, euphoria, and sedation.
Despite some physiological basis for cannabinoids helping with CINV, current research from randomized controlled trials is limited, inconsistent in reporting, and does not definitively confirm their superiority or safety.]
