4F-MDMB-BICA

EMCDDA initial report on the new psychoactive substance methyl 2-({1-(4-fluorobutyl)-1H-indol-3-ylcarbonyl}amino)-3,3-dimethylbutanoate (4F-MDMB-BICA) : in accordance with Article 5b of Regulation (EC) No 1920/2006 (as amended)

Metadatos de publicación

Methyl 2-({[1-(4-fluorobutyl)-1H-indol-3-yl]carbonyl}amino)-3,3-dimethylbutanoate (4FMDMB- BICA) is a synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonist. Similar to other synthetic cannabinoids, it is sold as a ‘legal’ replacement for cannabis. Because of their high potency, synthetic cannabinoids can pose a high risk of severe poisoning, which in some cases can be fatal. In Europe, 4F-MDMB-BICA is monitored by the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA) as a new psychoactive substance through the European Union Early Warning System (EWS) in accordance with Article 5a of Regulation (EC) No 1920/2006 (as amended). 4F-MDMB-BICA was formally notified as a new psychoactive substance by the EMCDDA on behalf of Belgium on 2 July 2020. The notification was based on the identification of the substance in 1.5 kg of white powder seized by Belgian customs at Bierset Airport, Belgium, on 31 March 2020. The seizure originated from China and was en route to the Netherlands. Since the formal notification, information on 4F-MDMB-BICA has been exchanged between the EMCDDA and the European Union EWS network (EMCDDA, Europol, Reitox national focal points and the Commission); the European Medicines Agency (EMA) has been kept duly informed.
