GW-842166X is a drug which acts as a potent and selective cannabinoid CB2 receptor agonist with a novel chemical structure based on a pyrimidine core. It has potent analgesic anti-inflammatory and anti-hyperalgesic actions in animal models but without cannabis-like behavioural effects due to its extremely low affinity for the CB1 receptor.
