JWH-200

From WikiMD's Wellnesspedia

JWH-200 is a synthetic cannabinoid from the JWH family. It is an analgesic chemical often used in research that acts as a cannabinoid agonist at both the CB1 and CB2 receptors. JWH-200 was banned in 2011 by the US Drug Enforcement Administration.

Chemistry[edit | edit source]

JWH-200 is part of the JWH series of synthetic cannabinoids that were created by John W. Huffman. It is a full agonist at both the CB1 and CB2 cannabinoid receptors. The chemical formula for JWH-200 is C25H25NO2.

Effects[edit | edit source]

The effects of JWH-200 on the human body are not fully understood due to the lack of scientific research. However, it is known to produce effects similar to those of cannabis, including relaxation, altered perception, and potentially, hallucinations.

Legal Status[edit | edit source]

In July 2012, the US DEA temporarily classified JWH-200 and four other synthetic cannabinoids as Schedule I controlled substances due to concerns about their safety. This classification was made permanent in July 2013.
