A 26-year aged non-atopic criminological technician reacted to hemp (Cannabis sativa) and hashish with urticarial eruptions on hands and lower arms, rhinitis and conjunctivitis. Rubbing tests with pollenrich hashish were strongly positive. As hemp antigens were unavailable a hyposensitization therapy with hop (Humulus lupulus)--a plant belonging to the Cannabacea family--was begun.
