Low Risk & No Synergy

Risks and toxicity

The toxicity and long-term health effects of recreational tianeptine use have not been studied in any scientific context, and the exact toxic dosage is unknown. PW

Anecdotal evidence suggests that there are no negative health effects attributed to simply trying the drug by itself at low to moderate doses and using it very sparingly (but nothing can be completely guaranteed). Independent research should always be done to ensure that a combination of two or more substances is safe before consumption. PW

It is strongly recommended that one use harm reduction practices when using this substance. PW

Lethal dosage

The LD₅₀ of tianeptine has not yet officially been established; however, it seems to have a large therapeutic index and margin of safety. In 2007, a 26-year-old man committed suicide by taking an excessive amount of tianeptine in combination with alcohol. However, the amount required to overdose is not likely to be taken on accident. To ensure safety while using tianeptine, it is advised to not exceed 100 mg in a single dose or 300 mg total in one day.[17] PW

Tolerance and addiction potential

The chronic use of tianeptine can be considered as mildly addictive and is capable of causing both physical and psychological dependence. When physical dependence has developed, withdrawal symptoms may occur if a person suddenly stops their usage. PW

Tolerance to many of the effects of tianeptine develops with prolonged use, including therapeutic effects. This results in users having to administer increasingly large doses to achieve the same effects. After that, it takes about 3 - 7 days for the tolerance to be reduced to half and 1 - 2 weeks to be back at baseline (in the absence of further consumption). This compound may share a cross tolerance with other trycyclic antidepressants and opioids. PW

It is worth noting that because of tianeptine's short duration of effects, it may compel some to frequent redosing. The potential euphoric effects of high doses (> 100 mg) may cause some users to exceed recommended dosages, which could quickly raise tolerance and intensify negative side effects. In addition, tianeptine possesses certain properties as a μ-opioid agonist, possibly leading to addiction and withdrawal mechanics similar to that of opiates. However, as with most people looking to discontinue their antidepressant medications (both SSRIs and TCAs), daily users of tianeptine should taper off their usage instead of suddenly halting it. This will ensure that negative discontinuation symptoms are kept to a minimum.[8] PW

Tianeptine withdrawal can occur with as little as ~500mg per day, and increases in severity with the amount of daily dosage and time spent using the drug. Withdrawal symptoms are similar to opioids (flu-like symptoms, watery eyes, and nose, dry heaves et al.) and may include emotional instability. Due to the fact that Tianeptine generally has weaker recreational properties compared to other opioids, the withdrawal of this substance can feel significantly worse than an equally euphoric dose of a more traditional opioid. PW

Overview

Tianeptine (trade names Stablon and Coaxil) is an atypical antidepressant. While primarily a prescription drug, it is sometimes used in high doses for recreational opioid effects. It has a unique and poorly-understood mechanism of action consisting of modulation of the brain's monoaminergic and glutamatergic systems. PW

A Tricyclic antidepressant, that has quite unique pharmacological properties than others in its class. Such as the possible indirect action on NMDA/AMPA and a full agonist at the μ-opioid receptor. While abuse of this substance is uncommon, it has been shown in a few countries. TS

Tianeptine, sold under the brand names Stablon, Tatinol, and Coaxil among others, is an atypical tricyclic antidepressant which is used mainly in the treatment of major depressive disorder, although it may also be used to treat anxiety, asthma, and irritable bowel syndrome.[1–4] WP

Tianeptine has antidepressant and anxiolytic effects with a relative lack of sedative, anticholinergic, and cardiovascular side effects. It has been found to act as an atypical agonist of the μ-opioid receptor with clinically negligible effects on the δ- and κ-opioid receptors. This may explain part of its antidepressant and anxiolytic effects; however, it is thought that tianeptine also modulates glutamate receptors, and this may also explain tianeptine's antidepressant/anxiolytic effects.[5–10] WP

Tianeptine was discovered and patented by the French Society of Medical Research in the 1960s. It was introduced for medical use in France in 1983. Currently, tianeptine is approved in France and manufactured and marketed by Laboratories Servier SA; it is also marketed in a number of other European countries under the trade name Coaxil as well as in Asia (including Singapore) and Latin America as Stablon and Tatinol but it is not available in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Italy or the United Kingdom. In the United States, it is an unregulated drug sold under several names and some of these products have been found to be adulterated with other recreational drugs. It is commonly known by the nickname "gas station heroin". In July 2026, the United States Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) announced its intention to make tianeptine a Schedule I controlled substance.[11–16] WP

History

History

Tianeptine was introduced for medical use in France under the brand name Stablon in 1983.[11] WP

Pharmacology

Atypical μ-opioid receptor agonist

In 2014, tianeptine was found to be a μ-opioid receptor (MOR) full agonist using human proteins. It was also found to act as a full agonist of the δ-opioid receptor (DOR), although with approximately 200-fold lower potency. The same researchers subsequently found that the MOR is required for the acute and chronic antidepressant-like behavioral effects of tianeptine in mice and that its primary metabolite had similar activity as a MOR agonist but with a much longer elimination half-life. Moreover, in mice, although tianeptine produced other opioid-like behavioral effects such as analgesia and reward, it did not result in tolerance or withdrawal. The authors suggested that tianeptine may be acting as a biased agonist of the MOR and that this may be responsible for its atypical profile as a MOR agonist. However, there are reports that suggest that withdrawal effects resembling those of other typical opioid drugs (including but not limited to depression, insomnia, and cold/flu-like symptoms) do manifest following prolonged use at dosages far beyond the medical range. In addition to its therapeutic effects, activation of the MOR is likely to also be responsible for the abuse potential of tianeptine at high doses that are well above the normal therapeutic range and efficacy threshold.[8][46][47][48] WP⚠ Wikipedia itself has flagged this text: citation needed.

In rats, when co-administered with morphine, tianeptine prevents morphine-induced respiratory depression without impairing analgesia. In humans, however, tianeptine was found to increase respiratory depression when administered in conjunction with the potent opioid remifentanil.[49][50] WP

Glutamatergic, neurotrophic, and neuroplastic modulation

Research suggests that tianeptine produces its antidepressant effects through indirect alteration and inhibition of glutamate receptor activity (i.e., AMPA receptors and NMDA receptors) and release of BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor), in turn affecting neural plasticity. Some researchers hypothesize that tianeptine has a protective effect against stress induced neuronal remodeling. There is also action on the NMDA and AMPA receptors. In animal models, tianeptine inhibits the pathological stress-induced changes in glutamatergic neurotransmission in the amygdala and hippocampus. It may also facilitate signal transduction at the CA3 commissural associational synapse by altering the phosphorylation state of glutamate receptors. With the discovery of the rapid and novel antidepressant effects of drugs such as ketamine, many believe the efficacy of antidepressants is related to promotion of synaptic plasticity. This may be achieved by regulating the excitatory amino acid systems that are responsible for changes in the strength of synaptic connections as well as enhancing BDNF expression, although these findings are based largely on preclinical studies.[7][12][51–54] WP

Serotonin reuptake enhancer

Tianeptine is no longer labelled a selective serotonin reuptake enhancer (SSRE) antidepressant. Tianeptine had been found to bind to the same allosteric site on the serotonin transporter (SERT) as conventional TCAs. However, whereas conventional TCAs inhibit serotonin reuptake by the SERT, tianeptine appeared to enhance it. This seems to be because of the unique C3 amino heptanoic acid side chain of tianeptine, which, in contrast to other TCAs, is thought to lock the SERT in a conformation that increases affinity for and reuptake (Vₘₐₓ) of serotonin. As such, tianeptine was thought to act a positive allosteric modulator of the SERT, or as a "serotonin reuptake enhancer".[7][12][51–55] WP

Although tianeptine was originally found to have no effect in vitro on monoamine reuptake, release, or receptor binding, upon acute and repeated administration, tianeptine decreased the extracellular levels of serotonin in rat brain without a decrease in serotonin release, leading to a theory of tianeptine enhancing serotonin reuptake. The (−)-enantiomer is more active in this sense than the (+)-enantiomer. However, more recent studies found that long-term administration of tianeptine does not elicit any marked alterations (neither increases nor decreases) in extracellular levels of serotonin in rats. However, coadministration of tianeptine and the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor fluoxetine inhibited the effect of tianeptine on long-term potentiation in hippocampal CA1 area. This is considered an argument for the opposite effects of tianeptine and fluoxetine on serotonin uptake, although it has been shown that fluoxetine can be partially substituted for tianeptine in animal studies. In any case, the collective research suggests that direct modulation of the serotonin system is unlikely to be the mechanism of action underlying the antidepressant effects of tianeptine.[7][51][55–58] WP

Other actions

Tianeptine modestly enhances the mesolimbic release of dopamine and potentiates CNS D₂ and D₃ receptors. Tianeptine has no affinity for the dopamine transporter or the dopamine receptors. CREB-TF (CREB, cAMP response element-binding protein) is a cellular transcription factor. It binds to certain DNA sequences called cAMP response elements (CRE), thereby increasing or decreasing the transcription of the genes. CREB has a well-documented role in neuronal plasticity and long-term memory formation in the brain. Cocaine- and amphetamine-regulated transcript, also known as CART, is a neuropeptide protein that in humans is encoded by the CARTPT gene. CART appears to have roles in reward, feeding, stress, and it has the functional properties of an endogenous psychostimulant. Taking into account that CART production is upregulated by CREB, it could be hypothesized that due to tianeptine's central role in BDNF and neuronal plasticity, this CREB may be the transcription cascade through which this drug enhances mesolimbic release of dopamine.[51][59–67] WP

Research indicates possible anticonvulsant (anti-seizure) and analgesic (painkilling) activity of tianeptine via downstream modulation of adenosine A₁ receptors (as the effects could be experimentally blocked by antagonists of this receptor). Tianpetine is also weak histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor, specifically of HDAC1 and HDAC2 but not of HDAC3, and analogues with greatly increased potency such as tianeptinaline have been developed.[68][69] WP

Tianeptine has been shown to be a high-efficacy agonist of PPAR-delta, a nuclear receptor.[70] WP

Pharmacokinetics

The bioavailability of tianeptine is approximately 99%. Its plasma protein binding is about 95%. The metabolism of tianeptine is hepatic, via β-oxidation. CYP enzymes are not involved, which limits the potential for drug-drug interactions. Maximal concentration is reached in about an hour and the elimination half-life is 2.5 to 3 hours. The elimination half-life has been found to be increased to 4 to 9 hours in the elderly. Tianeptine is usually packaged as a sodium salt but can also be found as tianeptine sulfate, a slower-releasing formulation patented by Janssen in 2012. In 2022 Tonix Pharmaceuticals received permission from the US FDA to conduct phase II clinical trials on tianeptine hemioxalate extended-release tablets designed for once-daily use. The project was discontinued in late 2023 because of disappointing results in clinical trials.[6][71–74] WP

Tianeptine has two active metabolites, MC5 (a pentanoic acid derivative of the parent compound) and MC3 (a propionic acid derivative). MC5 has a longer elimination half-life of approximately 7.6 hours, and takes about a week to reach steady-state concentration under daily-dosing. MC5 is a mu-opioid agonist but not delta-opioid agonist, with EC50 at the mu-opioid receptor of 0.545 μM (vs 0.194 μM for tianeptine). MC3 is a very weak mu-opioid agonist, with an EC50 of 16 μM. Tianeptine is excreted 65% in the urine and 15% in feces.[6][46][71][75] WP
