    Product Description

    Oleoyl ethyl amide (OEtA) has potent FAAH inhibitory activity (IC50 5.25 nM in rat brain homogenates) but does not inhibit acidic PEAase or bind to CB1 or CB2 receptors. OEtA is therefore a selective FAAH inhibitor with potential analgesic and anxiolytic activity.1

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
