Introduced

Summary

Would make it illegal to market products as dietary supplements when they do not meet the legal definition. The Prohibiting Tianeptine and Other Dangerous Products Act of 2026 would also bar supplements prepared, packed, or held with the assistance of people debarred under federal law and would expand the Food and Drug Administration's ability to exclude imports and seize offending products.

Show full summary
  • Consumers: Shoppers would likely see fewer mislabeled or hazardous supplements because products that fail the legal definition could be blocked or seized.
  • Manufacturers and importers: Businesses would face new compliance checks and risk having shipments refused at the border or seized if products violate the new rules.
  • Debarred individuals: Companies could be liable if they use people debarred under section 306 to help make, package, or store supplements.
  • FDA and enforcement: The agency would get clearer authority to stop imports and to seize and condemn products that break the new prohibitions.
