JWH-018 (AM678)

Description: JWH-018 (AM-678, 30 (DEA controlled substance)) is a novel and potent analgesic compound from the naphthoylindole family that acts as a full agonist at both the CB1 and CB2 cannabinoid receptors, with some selectivity for CB2.  It produces effects in animals similar to those of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), a cannabinoid naturally present in cannabis, leading to its use in synthetic cannabis products that in some countries are sold legally as 'incense blends'.
