Tianeptine, a dangerous and addictive substance, is being sold on the shelves of corner convenience stores in New Jersey, posing a significant threat to public health. This tricyclic antidepressant, not approved by the U.S. FDA, has been linked to a sharp rise in poisoning cases in New Jersey since June 2023. The drug can be found in products marketed as dietary supplements, like Neptune's Fix, and is available for purchase at places like gas stations, convenience shops, and online.
