AH-7921 (3,4-Dichloro-N-([1-(dimethylamino)cyclohexyl] methyl)benzamide) is an N-substituted cyclohexylmethylbenzamide classified as an opioid analgesic with high addictive liability. The compound acts as an agonist of μ-opioid receptors, although at high doses it can also stimulate κ-opioid receptors. In animal studies, AH-7921 produced typical morphine-like actions, i.e., antinociception, respiratory depression, sedation, miosis, inhibition of gut propulsion, and lowered body temperature, with a potency almost equipotent to that of morphine. There is limited information available on the routes of administration and the doses of AH-7921 used. The compound is taken orally, nasally, by smoking, and, less commonly, by intravenous injection. Minimal oral effective doses for complete pain suppression by AH 7921 are 1.25 and 13.8 mg/kg for canine and rhesus monkey, respectively.
