The legal status of troparil is unclear, but it may be considered a [[Federal Analog Act|controlled substance analog]] of cocaine in the [[United States]] on the grounds of its related chemical structure. The legal status of troparil and many other cocaine analogs in Canada, is dependent on if ecgonine, coca, or cocaine were derivatives of the compound, according to the wording on the entry of coca in Schedule 1 of the [[Controlled Drugs and Substances Act]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/c-38.8/page-24.html#h-28|title=Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (S.C. 1996, c. 19) | work = Department of Justice | publisher = Government of Canada |url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120107012749/http://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/c-38.8/page-24.html|archive-date= 7 January 2012 }}</ref>
The legal status of CPT is unclear. [[Sigma-Aldrich]] claims that it is a Schedule II / Class B drug in the USA and UK,<ref>[http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/catalog/search/ProductDetail/SIGMA/C156 Sigma-Aldrich pharmaceutical page for Troparil/CPT]</ref> but it is not listed in any controlled drugs legislation or published lists of illegal drugs from the relevant government departments in these jurisdictions. Nevertheless, CPT may be considered a [[Federal Analog Act|controlled substance analogue]] of cocaine on the grounds of its related chemical structure in some jurisdictions such as [[Australia]] and [[New Zealand]].

This is somewhat unclear as there has not been any legal precedent set to determine whether a compound derived by the ''simplification'' of an illegal drug molecule (removal of an ester link in this instance) can be considered "substantially similar" to the illegal drug; all previous examples of [[designer drug]]s such as [[Alphamethylfentanyl|α-methylfentanyl]] have been derived instead by ''adding'' extra substituent groups onto the molecule, and the laws covering this area only refer to the addition or substitution of groups onto the illegal drug molecule, not their removal. An excessively broad precedent set in this area would be extremely problematic from a legal standpoint.
