Neurogenic vomiting, also known as psychogenic vomiting, is characterized by recurrent episodes of vomiting without an underlying organic sexually transmitted disease, often associated with psychosocial factors.

bubble_chart Clinical Manifestations

It often occurs due to unpleasant environments or psychological tension. The condition manifests as recurrent involuntary vomiting episodes, typically happening shortly after eating, with sudden projectile vomiting. There is no obvious nausea or other discomfort, and appetite remains unaffected—patients can eat again after vomiting. Most cases show no weight loss or endocrine disorders, and patients often exhibit hysterical personality traits.

1. Drug Therapy: General antispasmodic and antiemetic drugs have limited effectiveness. Anxiolytics may help alleviate anxiety to some extent, and some patients respond well to sulpiride.
2. Behavioral Therapy: Can yield relatively ideal results.
3. Psychotherapy: It is essential to explain the nature, pathogenesis, and prognosis of the disease to patients to alleviate their tension, enabling them to actively cooperate with treatment and achieve satisfactory outcomes.
