JWH-081

JWH-081 is an analgesic chemical from the naphthoylindole family, which acts as a cannabinoid agonist at both the CB1 and CB2 receptors.[2] With a Ki of 1.2nM it is fairly selective for the CB1 subtype, its affinity at this subtype approximately 10x the affinity at CB2.[3] It was discovered by and named after John W. Huffman.

JWH-081 may be neurotoxic to animals when administered in high doses.[4]

In the United States, JWH-081 is a Schedule I Controlled Substance.[5]

As of October 2015, JWH-081 is a controlled substance in China.[6]

gollark: Ah, I finally worked out how to do the thing in JS.
gollark: The fact that there's a meme about it doesn't mean it's *actually* got a high probability of being a problem. And Paradox's question isn't very sensible because of what I said.
gollark: Not really. The actual meme emergence may be random, but the conditions it can persist/replicate in aren't.
gollark: I blame javascript.
gollark: Who consumes lots of them *and* has some "non-masculinity" you can laugh at.
