5F-AMB (also known as 5F-MMB-PINACA and 5F-AMB-PINACA) is an indazole-based synthetic cannabinoid from the indazole-3-carboxamide family,[2] which has been used as an active ingredient in synthetic cannabis products. It was first identified in Japan in early 2014.[3][4] Although only very little pharmacological information about 5F-AMB itself exists,[5] its 4-cyanobutyl analogue (instead of 5-fluoropentyl) has been reported to be a potent agonist for the CB1 receptor (KI = 0.7 nM).[6][7]
