LORAIN COUNTY, Ohio — The drug called “gas station heroin” and marketed as “happiness in a bottle” has been banned in Ohio since 2022, but a Northeast Ohio family said tianeptine is still having deadly consequences.
She explained her son was recovering from alcoholism and had relapsed in the summer of 2023. She believes Chris purchased a bottle of Neptune’s Fix from the K&B Sunoco in November 2023 as an alternative to alcohol. The elixir is billed as a mood-altering substance “superior to kratom.” Kratom is a legal substance with opioid and stimulant-like effects.
“It is very, very serious and deadly. It can cause seizures. It can cause respiratory depression and it can cause death,” said Jordan Lebovitz, a trial attorney and partner at the Nurenberg Paris law firm. “All of the gas stations and other establishments should have known then - do not sell this because it’s dangerous,” said Lebovitz. “The product was labeled and marketed as ‘happiness in a bottle,’ sitting there on the shelves and just as easy to purchase as a pack of gum.”
