Are Peptides Legal in Cameroon?
Cameroon has a more active pharmaceutical enforcement environment than many neighbors, particularly around counterfeit medicines. There is no domestic peptide market, and importing research peptides falls into a grey area. Enforcement is moderate, so shipments could potentially be flagged at customs. Travelers should carry documentation for any peptides they bring into the country.

Peptide Regulations in Cameroon
| Peptide | Status | Rx Required | Schedule | Detail | Source |

| Tirzepatide | Banned | Yes | Sans Amm | No AMM. Loi n. 90/035 du 10 aout 1990 art. 64 prohibits supplying any pharmaceutical speciality, free or for payment, without the prior visa of the public health authority; Decret n. 98-405/PM du 22 octobre 1998 art. 3 subjects market placement to an AMM issued after homologation. Regulator is the DPML, a directorate of the Ministry of Public Health rather than an independent agency. The only route for non-homologated medicines is art. 34 of the 1998 decree, which permits import and use for therapeutic trial purposes by approved experts - there is no general named-patient or personal-import provision on the face of the instruments. Penalty exposure turns sharply on classification: breach of the visa requirement attracts only a fine (art. 66 applying art. 20, 50,000-500,000 FCFA), but any breach of the rules on importation, sale or use of substances veneneuses attracts art. 68 - a fine of 1,000,000-5,000,000 FCFA AND imprisonment of 1 to 10 years.
