Is Pink Cocaine / Tusi legal in China?

Confirmed against a primary sourceVerified July 14, 2026
Legal status
Pink cocaine (tusi) is not scheduled as such; it is a variable mixture (typically ketamine + MDMA) prosecuted through its constituents — China controls ketamine (氯胺酮) as a Category I psychotropic substance and MDMA as a controlled narcotic, and the Criminal Law reaches any mixture containing a controlled drug. Because the blend varies batch to batch, exposure follows the most-severely-controlled component; ketamine is itself capital-eligible at high quantity (≥500 g under the 2016 SPC Drug Crimes Interpretation), so tusi carries capital exposure through either constituent.
Consequences if caught
Trafficking is sentenced under Criminal Law art. 347 with quantity-graded penalties up to death; ketamine at or above roughly 500 g is death-eligible, and an MDMA-containing sample likewise engages capital thresholds.
If prescribed or medical
No lawful supply of the mixture; ketamine is a Category I psychotropic medicine used as an anaesthetic under strict control, while MDMA has no accepted medical use.
Documentation
Sold as a party powder of unknown makeup; because the blend varies batch to batch, buyers cannot know the quantity or identity of the death-eligible constituent present, so capital-level legal exposure is unknowable at purchase.
