Why a "revision used" link? Anyone can edit Wikipedia at any time, so the article you open today may not say what it said when we read it. This link opens the exact version we read on 24 October 2026, frozen as it was. It is the only way to check that every quote on this page matches its source word for word. Newer versions may correct or change things. When we re-check this page against a newer version, the edit log records it. How we cite

Overview

Onternabez (also known as HU-308, HU308, PPP-003, and ARDS-003) is a synthetic cannabinoid that acts as a potent cannabinoid agonist. It is highly selective for the cannabinoid-2 receptor (CB₂ receptor) subtype, with a selectivity more than 5,000 times greater for the CB₂ receptor than the CB₁ receptor. The synthesis and characterization of onternabez took place in the laboratory of Raphael Mechoulam at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem (the HU in HU-308) in the late 1990s. The pinene dimethoxy-DMH-CBD derivative onternabez was identified as a potent peripheral CB₂-selective agonist in in vitro and animal studies in 1990 and 1999.[1][2][3] WP⚠ A word may be missing here. It reads this way in the source too.
