JWH-200 is an analgesic drug from the aminoalkylindole family, which acts as a cannabinoid receptor agonist. Its binding affinity at the CB1 receptor is 42nM, around the same as that of THC,[1] but interestingly its analgesic potency in vivo was higher than that of other analogues which had stronger CB1 binding affinity in vitro,[2] around 3x that of THC but with less sedative effect,[3] most likely reflecting favourable pharmacokinetic characteristics.
