I would like to find out about the availability of Drixoral Cold and Allergy pills. They are round little green pills.
Re: Duane (# 3)
Great!!! Do you know where it's available for purchase?
Re: singerita (# 19)
Cetirizine-D is generic of brand name Zyrtec-D. Should be available in the U.S.A. for sure and I would think in Canada. May have to sign for it because of the pseudoephedrine or my friend's Doctor writes her a prescription for it. And the pharmacy can fill it no problem.
Re: Tellusthetruth (# 65)
There is a small pharmaceutical company (Poly Pharmaceuticals) now making several OTC medications containing Dexbrompheniramine Maleate. Their products aren't slow-release like Drixoral was, so you only get 4 hours of dosage per pill instead of 12, but it works the way I remember Drixoral working. You can order it directly from the manufacturer's website: alahist.com
Re: Tellusthetruth (# 65)
They took it off the market because the Sudafed was being used by drug dealers to make methamphetamine, so once again the needs of the few outweigh the needs of the many.
I believe Drixoral was a miracle drug that would put all other drugs out of business. And since it was generic no profits were being made.......at least the level of profits the new drugs (Claritin et al) would bring. Curious that something so good, that was NOT discontinued by the FDA for any health reason (per their website) would not be available. Isn't it also surprising that no one else is manufacturing anything with dexbrompheniramine maleate? Collusion? There needs to be an investigation.

I would love to know how to get ahold of drixoral it's the only thing that worked for cold and allergies an you didn't have to take a whole box of
Chlorphen-12 is the generic equivalent to Chlor-Trimeton or so they say now
it is possible we can find it in uropian pharmacist?
In the 1990's I took Drixoral. At that time I was healthy (except for a cold) but I had a side effect. A year later, I tried it again; I had forgotten what the side effect was but WOW, I remembered when it happened again! I felt really weird and my heart was pounding; my heart rate dropped to 40! I thought I was going to die! Needless to say, I never took that medication again and was happy to see it was off the market! In 2005 I had a heart attack; if it was damage from this pill I will never know. Pharmaceuticals like making money; if there is a drug that is discontinued, there has to be a good reason! I never reported this but maybe others did!
These were the best! I've searched forever. The only thing that ever worked.
The number I called today re: Drixoral was Bayer Canada at: 1-800-622-2937.
I was replying to DD's post, but that's not how it posted.
I called the same number today and was told Drixoral cold and allergy tabs were discontinued due to an outdated mfg process and low demand. Also they still get many calls about it. I left my name with the request they please bring it back! This week an old 2007 tab worked better for me than anything else!
I will do anything to get Drixoral, It is the only thing that worked for me. Nothing else works.
Just went to Canada they can't get it anymore either.
HOW TO DUPLICATE DRIXORAL IN THE US
The old formula for the 12 hour Drixoral that I hoarded till last year was the 12 hour 120 mg Pseudoephedrine and Chlorpheniramine Maleate. You can get both 12 hour ingredients at Walgreens. The 12 hour version of Chlorpheniramine Maleate is called Chloraphen-12. Hope that gives you all more relief.
Where did you order the drixoral from? Can it be ordered from Victoria?
Where can I get Drixoral .what web site.desperate for relief.only thing that works
Canada no longer has Drixoral. It is discontinued up there also.
Victoria, it's worth the drive. Where in Vic can I go?
I have found you can buy the antihistamine in Drixoral, dexbrompheniramine maleate from Poly Pharmaceuticals under the name ALA-HIST IR through Walgreens in 4 hour tabs and have your Dr. prescribe 12 hour pseudoephedrine tabs. I am running out of Drixoral and going to give this a shot. I have an inner ear disorder and been trying several new ones to help with my vertigo. Nothing has helped but Drixoral. I will probably become disabled as I cannot stand up straight without it unless this works. Good luck everyone and please if you find you can buy it anywhere, please, please let me know. I wonder about Mexico but have not been able to find anything helpful on the internet.
