JWH-018/073 - SPICE JWH-018 / 073 are analgesic chemicals from the naphthoylindole family, which acts as a full agonist at both the CB 1 and CB 2 cannabinoid receptors, with some selectivity for CB 2. Synthetic cannabinoids Sold as incense 14

Packaged as Incense: Implying Safety 15

Sample Ad for Incense 16
17
JWH-018 Created in 1995 for experimental purposes in animal and cell cultures, not humans, by Dr. John Huffman, PhD at Clemson University 17

JWH-018 1-pentyl-3-naphthoylindole An analgesic chemical from the aminoalkylindole family. $40.00 per gram http://www.researchchemicalz.com 18
19
JWH-018 as Agonist to CB1 Mainly found in the brain (CNS), also in lungs liver and kidneys Increase formation of fatty acids (lipogenesis) Inhibit the motor activity of the gastrointestinal tract (gastrointestinal motility) Low blood pressure (hypotension) Reduced pain sensitivity (hypoanalgesia) 19
20
JWH-018 as Agonist to CB1 Mainly found in the immune system and hematopoietic cells Plays a role in the autoimmune system and response Dosage varies per individual Testing issues 20
21
JWH-018 Route of Administration Usually dissolved from powder: 10mg/ml in 95% EtOH, mixed in 1 mg of inert material Smoked: Most common Inhaled: Vaporization through oil pipe or cigarette Oral: As granule (onset in hours);If dissolved onset < hour Insufflation: Unknown; peak effect almost instantly 21
22
JWH-018 JWH-018 produces a traditional decreasing (tachyphylactic) response to the drug in repeated dosing, notably decreasing after 3 days of regular dosing Likely result of CB1 down regulation, similar to tolerance developed from cannabis Some short-term memory loss associated with chronic use 22
23
JWH-018 THC is a partial agonist at CB1 receptors; JWH-018 (and many of its analogues) are full agonists Users may experience far more intense effects compared to smoking cannabis THC has been shown to inhibit GABA neurotransmission in the brain Some concern about hypokalaemia, resulting in Q-T prolongation, but argued in research 23
24
