Tolerance & Pharmacokinetics
drugs.wikiTolerance Decay
Acute tolerance: develops within a single session — the reset numbers above apply after sustained heavy use, not after one binge. Within-session tachyphylaxis usually resets largely overnight.
Tolerance and cross‑tolerance patterns are inferred from user surveys and clinical observations of SCRAs as a class; quantitative values are illustrative to help plan spacing between sessions and should not be treated as precise pharmacometrics.

Harm Reduction
drugs.wikiEvidence-backed harm-reduction points and rationale added below in this message. See citations. Ki/affinity values for AM‑1248 vary by source; secondary compilations suggest nanomolar CB binding with CB2 > CB1 selectivity, but primary in vitro data are limited in open sources accessible here. Treat potency as very high and batch-variable.
