The Food and Drug Administration said Neptune’s Fix can interact with other medicines in a “life-threating way,” and are urging retailers to remove the product from shelves.The mother of a New Jersey man who died after consuming a supplement known by some as “gas station heroin” has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the manufacturer, distributor, and the merchant who sold the product.
Neptune’s Fix can interact with other medicines in a “life-threatening way,” and retailers are urged to remove the product from their shelves, the FDA said. June Cornier’s wrongful death lawsuit alleges Neptune Resources, LLC, Super Chill CBD Products, and Hometown Market of Point Pleasant acted recklessly in bringing the product to market and failed to ensure the elixir was safe for human consumption.
In addition to wrongful death and negligence, the lawsuit alleges the product was defectively designed, “unreasonably dangerous,” and that the makers, distributor, and seller engaged in fraudulent business practices by misleading consumers about its safety.
