Attribution

    Raphael Mechoulam — discovered its activity, 1995

    Clinical antiemetic use. With A. Abrahamov and A. Abrahamov, gave Δ8-THC to eight children on chemotherapy across 480 treatments and reported vomiting completely prevented with negligible side effects; the trial began in 1987 and was published in Life Sciences in 1995. He did NOT first make Δ8-THC — Roger Adams's group prepared it in the early 1940s.
