'''AB-FUBINACA''' | '''AB-FUBINACA''' is a novel synthetic [[Psychoactive class::cannabinoid]] compound. Members of this group produce cannabis-like effects when [[administered]]. | ||
AB-FUBINACA was originally developed by Pfizer in 2009 as an [[analgesic]] medication,<ref>The cannabinoid receptors (PubMed.gov / NCBI) | http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12432948</ref> but was not pursued for human use. Subsequently in 2012, it was discovered as an ingredient in synthetic cannabis blends in Japan<ref>Uchiyama, N.; Matsuda, S.; Wakana, D.; Kikura-Hanajiri, R.; Goda, Y. (2012). "New cannabimimetic indazole derivatives, N-(1-amino-3-methyl-1-oxobutan-2-yl)-1-pentyl-1H-indazole-3-carboxamide (AB-PINACA) and N-(1-amino-3-methyl-1-oxobutan-2-yl)-1-(4-fluorobenzyl)-1H-indazole-3-carboxamide (AB-FUBINACA) identified as [[designer drug]]s in illegal products".</ref> along with a related compound [[AB-PINACA]] which had not previously been reported. | |||
Cannabinoids are commonly smoked or vaporized to achieve a quick [[onset]] of effects and rapid [[offset]]. AB-FUBINACA 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. | Cannabinoids are commonly smoked or vaporized to achieve a quick [[onset]] of effects and rapid [[offset]].

AB-FUBINACA, or N-[(1S)-1-(Aminocarbonyl)-2-methylpropyl]-1-[(4-fluorophenyl)methyl]-1H-indazole-3-carboxamide, is a synthetic [[Chemical class::indazole cannabinoid]] drug as it contains a substituted indazole core. A 4-substituted fluorophenyl group is bound to this indazole core through a methyl group at R<sub>1</sub> of the indazole. This indazole is substituted at R<sub>3</sub> with a carboxamide group. The terminal amine of this carboxamide is bonded to a substituted propyl chain with an aminocarbonyl group at R<sub>1</sub> and a methyl group at R<sub>2</sub>. | AB-FUBINACA, or N-[(1S)-1-(Aminocarbonyl)-2-methylpropyl]-1-[(4-fluorophenyl)methyl]-1H-indazole-3-carboxamide, is a synthetic [[Chemical class::indazole cannabinoid]] drug as it contains a substituted indazole core.

Tolerance to many of the effects of AB-FUBINACA [[Time to full tolerance::develops with prolonged and repeated use]]. This results in users having to administer increasingly large doses to achieve the same effects. After that, it takes about [[Time to half tolerance::3 - 7 days]] for the tolerance to be reduced to half and [[Time to zero tolerance::1 - 2 weeks]] to be back at baseline (in the absence of further consumption). AB-FUBINACA presents cross-tolerance with [[Cross-tolerance::all [[cannabinoids]]]], meaning that after the consumption of AB-FUBINACA all cannabinoids will have a reduced effect. | Tolerance to many of the effects of AB-FUBINACA [[Time to full tolerance::develops with prolonged and repeated use]].
