Legality · 3-MMC3-MMC in Guatemala: not individually verified
Also known as: metaphedrone
Not individually verified
We have not confirmed that 3-MMC specifically is scheduled in Guatemala, 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. Placement under Decreto 48-92 was not established from the lists read, and this is unresolved rather than absent.
Confirm directly with Guatemala’s national drug authority or your own embassy before you rely on anything.
