Senegal

Reimbursed Care Access

Senegal maintains a primarily restrictive, punitive statutory framework for illicit psychoactive substances while permitting conventional medical use of approved anesthetics and essential medicines. Outside of standard medical anesthetics (notably ketamine, which appears on national essential medicines lists and is used in hospitals), classic psychedelic compounds (psilocybin, MDMA, DMT, 5‑MeO‑DMT, ibogaine, ayahuasca, mescaline, 2C‑X, and esketamine/Spravato) have no routine, reimbursed medical pathway and are treated under broad narcotics/controlled‑substance laws except within authorized clinical research when applicable.
