Anyone advertising sex-enhancer drugs to stimulate sexual performance would be jailed for a year.

The Pharmacy and Poisons (Amendment) Bill 2018 also bans advertising products claiming to cure numerous sexual transmitted infections, such as gonorrhea. It also bans advertising cures for cancer, epilepsy and other conditions.

Other diseases for which alleged cures cannot be advertised are TB, leprosy, diabetes, dropsy, goitre, heart diseases, blindness and smallpox.

This may also make it illegal to advertise sexual toys in Kenya, depending on interpretation.

Also banned is advertising of abortion-inducing drugs. Those convicted can be jailed for one year or fined Sh20,000. Repeat offenders can be fined Sh30,000 or jailed for two years, or both.
