[[Subjective effects]] are reported to be somewhat similar to that of [[cannabis]] with a short duration and an emphasis on intense physical sensations.

Cannabinoids are commonly smoked or vaporized to achieve a quick [[onset]] of effects and rapid [[offset]]. 5F-AKB48 is [[oral]]ly active when dissolved in a lipid, which can increase the duration significantly. Like other [[cannabinoid]]s, it is insoluble in water but dissolves in [[ethanol]] and lipids.
