EG-018 is a carbazole-based synthetic cannabinoid that has been sold online as a designer drug.[1][2][3][4][5] It acts as a partial agonist of the CB1 and CB2 receptor, with reasonably high binding affinity, but low efficacy in terms of inducing a signaling response.[6]

Legal status

EG-018 is a controlled substance in Japan.[7]
