5F-ADB, MDMB-4en-PINACA and ADB-4en-PINACA are three potent indazole-carboxamide synthetic cannabinoids (SCs) that have been widely abused in recent years. However, the pharmacological research on these compounds remains limited, especially in vivo research data. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the pharmacological effects of 5F-ADB, MDMB-4en-PINACA and ADB-4en-PINACA in mice, comparing their in…
