2-FDCK in Samoa: not individually verified

Also known as: 2-fluoroketamine

Not individually verified

We have not confirmed that 2-FDCK specifically is scheduled in Samoa, so this page gives no legal status. Publishing a guess here would be worse than publishing nothing. What we do know is the governing national drug law, below.

What is on record
Not confirmed. 2-FDCK (2-fluorodeschloroketamine) is not named in the First, Second or Third Schedule (Class A, B or C narcotics respectively) to the Narcotics Act 1967, the official version as at 31 December 2023. A case insensitive search of the full cached text of the Act, including the chemical and common name terms "2-FDCK", "2-fluorodeschloroketamine" and "2-fluoroketamine", returned no match in any Schedule. The Fourth Schedule, controlled precursors, also does not name it. 2-FDCK is a ring substituted analogue of ketamine, and ketamine itself was separately searched for and is also not named anywhere in the Act; the Act has no scheduled parent compound for 2-FDCK to be caught as an isomer, ester, ether or salt of under the Schedules' own extension clauses. The Narcotics Act 1967 (1967 No. 3), the official version as at 31 December 2023, is the authority for the position stated. Whether a later Gazette amendment or a Head of State Order under section 5 of the Act has varied it since that date could not be established from the sources searched this session, so the position given is as at the version read and is not asserted as current beyond it.

Confirm directly with Samoa’s national drug authority or your own embassy before you rely on anything.

  • DXMa related compound, not 2-FDCK

    Dextromethorphan (DXM) is expressly excluded from the Narcotics Act 1967's Second Schedule item 71, LEVOMETHORPHAN entry, which reads in full, 'LEVOMETHORPHAN ((−)-3-methoxy-N-methylmorphinan) but not including dextromethorphan ((+)-3-methoxy-N-methylmorphinan) and dextrorphan ((+)-3-hydroxy-N-methylmorphinan)'. Dextromethorphan and dextrorphan are therefore not Class B narcotics under this entry, and no other item in any Schedule names dextromethorphan or dextrorphan. DXM is accordingly not controlled as a narcotic under this Act.

    Narcotics Act 1967 (1967 No. 3), official version as at 31 December 2023, Second Schedule, section A item 71, printed page 27, read 2026-10-07, https://www.ag.gov.ws/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/Narcotics-Act-1967.pdf · Verified October 8, 2026

  • PCPa related compound, not 2-FDCK

    PCP is controlled under the Narcotics Act 1967, the official version as at 31 December 2023, though the Act does not use the street abbreviation PCP as an entry heading. First Schedule item 30, Class A narcotics, names "PHENCYCLIDINE (1-(1-phenylcyclohexyl) piperidine)" directly, phencyclidine being the chemical name for which PCP is the standard abbreviation. Several related arylcyclohexylamine analogues are separately named nearby in the same Schedule: item 26 PCE, items 27 and 28 PCPY and PHP (both given the identical chemical description "1-(1-phenylcyclohexyl) pyrrolidine)" in the cached text), item 29 PEPTP and item 37 TCP, each its own Class A entry distinct from phencyclidine itself.

    Narcotics Act 1967 (1967 No. 3), official version as at 31 December 2023, First Schedule item 30, printed page 23, and sections 7, 10, 11, 17, 18 and 18A · sha256 75813ab45e1d52e938668948db0bc499c2726cfb73644b2dd6c38bd6ef3a962f · ag.gov.ws · read 2026-10-07 · Verified October 8, 2026
