This was previously discussed. Here is the thread: [What happens if pheromone use takes off and they get restricted or made illegal?](https://pheromonetalk.com/t/i-am-very-scared/7875).

This is what started the talk of lawsuits:

> As I recall, someone made a post about a lawsuit by a female with “buyers regret” when she found out her paramour from the night before used pheromones. Now I did not see anything about this myself but I think it was posted by a user in the NY area.

> So - at a certain point maybe either scenario could come true. Pheros being controlled by law and/or like medicine, or maybe they become effective and well-known enough everyone starts using them. Not too wild an idea in my book.

And my initial response:

> [@What happens if pheromone use takes off and they get restricted or made illegal?](https://pheromonetalk.com/t/what-happens-if-pheromone-use-takes-off-and-they-get-restricted-or-made-illegal/7875/9):

> Well, I am not an attorney, but I think there is a huge difference between wearing pheromones and pouring a mind altering pharmaceutical in somebody’s drink. As far as being sued over the use of pheromones, I think any such case could be ripped to shreds!
> 
> Let me get this right Mr/Mrs plaintiff - You’re claiming that my client wore some sort of cologne or pheromone that helped you make a conscious decision to have sex with him/her, is that correct? So, you already wanted to have sex with him/her, but weren’t entirely sure that was the right thing to do and you’re claiming that my client wore some sort of unproven voodoo chemical that induced you to make a conscious decision to copulate, is that about right? So Mr/Mrs plaintiff, just so I understand this correctly, are you saying that you were somehow hypnotized or mesmerized into engaging in sexual acts that you otherwise would not have? No more questions! Your Honor/Ladies and Gentlemen of the Jury, this matter would actually be funny if my client weren’t on trial. The plaintiff would have you believe that my client wore a cologne and that once the plaintiff got a smell of it, he/she was forced to engage in acts of sex with my client. This plaintiff is asking you to rule that their lack of moral character and poor judgment was a result of a smell, and that my client should be held liable. The plaintiff is asking you to believe that my clients cologne had the ability to remove his/her free will and forced him/her to do something that he/she didn’t want to do. Not only is this allegation absolutely ludicrous, but if there was a shred of truth to it, then the matter should have been brought as a criminal complaint, because it’s almost sounding as if they are alleging rape. Imagine that? a cologne that can eliminate free will. You cannot in good conscience believe that this plaintiff’s poor judgment and lack of morals are the fault of my client!

> Pheromones are not pharmaceutical products, and probably never could be regulated as pharmaceuticals, as they are not mind altering and have no medicinal benefit.
