Visine Lr Discontinued? (Page 6)

Having problems finding this product. Has it been discontinued and if so, do you know why?

REPLY

REPORT

Jessie, Just curious...what was the expiration date on the bottles you got from Canada? The last few times I bought the LR here, the expiration date was less than a year away...which led me to believe they weren't selling very well and maybe that was the reason we aren't seeing them anymore (even though everyone is saying that Visine says its a distribution problem).

OK, kids. I called VISINE again TODAY. They said there was a problem with the suppliers of the active ingredient. They have since gone to another manufacturer, which had to clear customs. He said they have increased production and hope to have VISINE LR back on the shelves in the middle of next month. He again reiterated that the product is NOT BEING DISCONTINUED. Just throwing this information out there.
I am still looking for other sources.

Someone has put one on Ebay starting at around $6.00 with a 5 day auction.

My dad and I are both Visine L.R. enthusiasts. He has made a smooth transition to Visine Multi-Symptom but I hate the stuff. I wear contacts and have overactive blood vessels in my eyes, and only L.R. worked for the problem.

As soon as I realized how sparse the product was in the U.S., I posted at a social board that I have been a member of since I was a teen (I'm 23 now), and one of the gals works at Rite Aid and shipped me over a bottle of clearance-marked Visine L.R.! :] I'm slightly tempted to sell it on eBay and make a hefty profit, but I think I need it more. And thanks for the advice about Visine Workplace. At least I know where to look once this last bottle runs out.

Jessie, I found one bottle at a Winn Dixie Supermarket yesterday. It's expiration was 8/11 also. I wonder if that means production was stopped in 8/09 of LR (if shelf life is two years).

all the grief i've been through and then i had the idea of just entering visine lr. i feel a little stupid but i'm greatly surprised to find others out there in the same boat and now good news of LR coming back. now does anybody want to join me on the case of the shrinking size of toilet paper?

Walgreens and CVS in Ocala are out of the product. Drugstore.com does NOT have it.

Same here. I am freaking out! I have been using this for 15 years, and it is the only brand that works for me. Any ideas?

Same here in Fla, no LR available so I tried the multi symptom. Used it once and had a burning sensation, my eyes stayed red and promptly returned the bottle to CVS. LR IS THE ONLY THING THAT WORKS!!!

There are some auctions on Ebay for it.

Visine workplace is exactly the same. I use it and it works the same. The bottles on ebay are over $20 with a day to go. Canadapharmacy is the place.

I just got my order from the Canada Pharmacy and it only took a couple of days. It seems to be working just like Visine LR!!!!

Like everyone else, for months I've been running around to every store looking for Visine LR. Glad I finally thought to google it! I tried the couple U.S. suggestions and they were out of stock. Last week, I ordered the Visine Workplace from canadapharmacy; it arrived today. I ordered a pkg of 6 and the S&H fee was $5. The exp. date is 12/2011. Thanks for the help!

Just wondering if anyone else has called VISINE lately? I know what he told me about them not discontinuing the product but am still not feeling that confident. I will order from canadapharmacy. If anyone else calls VISINE, please post what they tell you to see if the information they are giving is consistent. Thanks!
