Finally got a response from Bayer, even will get some benefits, lol

Dear Mr. / Ms. ********:

Thank you for taking the time to contact Bayer HealthCare. We appreciate your
interest in BRONKAID® Dual Action Caplets.

Bayer Healthcare is still manufacturing BRONKAID® Dual Action Caplets in 24 and
60 count sizes. Unfortunately, although we do our best to ensure that our
products are available for our consumers, it is ultimately the retailers choice
as to what products they keep in stock.

You may be interested to know that this product may be currently available for
sale on amazon.com or drugstore.com

In appreciation of your interest, we will be sending you a coupon booklet via
U.S. Mail. You can expect to receive your coupons in the next 7-10 business
days. If I may be of further assistance, please feel free to contact me.

Sincerely,

R**********

In the email I received from Bayer ^^^ they suggest to me I go to drugstore.com, yet drugstore.com says the item is no longer from the manufacturer.
 
I went to a local pharmacy (in a major Supermarket), I dont know the guy but as soon as I requested a bronkaid box he said, "first I had problems getting the inhalers, now I have problems getting these" in regards to my purchase of his last box of Bronkaid. He was down to 1 primatene box as well.

Just an FYI man, I found a very legit place to get the NYC stack and real ECA and Ephedra. Many people swear by it, PM me if you want to know the company though I have a feeling you already do.

i know a place that sells nyc, but, i'm curious what kind of offense it would be to be caught with norephedrine.

anyone know?
 
I live in Athens, GA. I've checked Kroger,Walmart, CVS, etc. All the bronkaids and primatene are out of stock. One of the pharmacists even told me that they may be being pulled off. I would try to buy it from a online pharmacy store but Georgia law prohibits online sale of ephedrine.
 
I registered just to add:

If you read nearly the end of the last page you can hear some good news.
 
the walgreens in the indianapolis area all were restocked with bronkaid today according to their website. I was able to buy one today from the Walgreens near my house
 
none by me in nj
 
I decided to go with the canadian 8mg HCLs to control better dosage, so I will likely have a couple spare boxes of Bronkaid shortly.

I got some on ebay way overpriced :(
 
I found some at CVS yesterday and mentioned to the clerk that I was having trouble finding it elsewhere and he goes, "yeah, these are like our last two boxes."

So then I buy the stupid things, and there are only 24 tabs in a box -- the **** is that about?! Last time I checked (a few months ago) they were in 60-count boxes.

There are 2 sizes, yes lol
 
I tried to get some from walmart (I think) in colorado and they quoted that discontinuation notice. I tried another walmart on the other side of town and they had some in and I got a 60 count box. Seems that it might not be the standard.
 
I got two at my local walmart today after them not having any for a while, they appeared to have been restocked and had a few more boxes. Relief washed over me in an awesome wave.
 
I stop at walgreens every Saturday now after the gym when i hit the atm next door. one day they will have it :)

Picked up a box of Bronkaid a few days ago at a Rite Aide. They seemed fully stocked as well. I went to two other pharmas very close to this one. There is a four way stop here and there is a different pharma on three of the corners. CVS, Walgreens, and Rite Aide. The first two were unsuccessful. Employees from both locations said that Bronkaid is to be reformulated and re-released. I don't know if that is true or not, but they both had the same answer.

Rite Aide seemed fully stocked though. I had my choice of Primatene or Bronkaid.
 
got some last night at walgreens.

only two boxes left and it had not even been in for more than a few days. the pharmacist didn't even know it was back in stock..
 
got my bronkaid tabs from CVS a few weeks back. they keep 'em behind the counter and you sign it out with your ID.

They were definitely out in most areas for a couple of months. Under the shelf, behind the shelf, in back, nada.
 
Thread resurrection. It seems that it's all disappearing again. My wife tried to buy some Bronkaid tonight and was told that all products like it were recalled/discontinued.

Any word on WTF is going on this time?

My wife just bought some here. No issues yet.
 
There was a Misprint on the bronkaid label, so they have been recalled, they will return soon. Primatene is still available.

Peace
 
Yeah, I should have Googled before I panicked. Thanks for the help and for not flaming me. :biggthumpup:
