The internet can be used for the sale of many drugs substances including anxiolytics and sedatives not regulated by government authorities. We describe a case of analytically confirmed severe phenibut toxicity necessitating intensive care unit (ICU) admission and management. The phenibut was purchased readily over the internet.
