Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)
Tetrahydrocannabinol has a long history of medical use as an analgesic. It was formally discovered by Dr. Raphael Mechoulam in 1964. Tetrahydrocannabinol has a molecular weight of 314.44g/mol and is naturally found in cannabis as a result of its secondary metabolism. THC behaves similarly to endo-cannabanoids found in the body near the neurons and can act interchangeably.
