In plain language

The bill adds tianeptine to Schedule I but prevents penalties for small possession amounts.

House Bill No. 21 places tianeptine in Schedule I, restricting its sale, but ensures individuals with small quantities face no penalties. The aim is to regulate the substance without criminalizing personal use.

Summary

Although tianeptine is added to Schedule I by House Bill No. 21, this amendment is meant to ensure that no civil or criminal penalties are imposed on an individual for possession of a small quantity of tianeptine. The purpose of House Bill No. 21 is to take tianeptine off the shelves, but not to punish an individual who buys a bottle of tianeptine from a gas station or convenience store.
