Where To Purchase Paregoric (Page 14) (Top voted first)

Updated

I've used Paregoric for 15 years and can't find it. Is there anywhere in the U.S. or other countries where this can be purchased?

Responding to "marijuana" mention; . . .Perhaps you were referring just to the comment regarding pain. The original question and issue here is how to stop diarrhea. Paregoric does help with pain as well, but it's primary purpose is to stop diarrhea. I'm sure the Paregoric was very helpful when rubbed on a child's gums too. Paregoric has some wonderful healing qualities that have been hard to find a replacement for. It is legally made again, and a person needs a doctor's prescription to get it.

Don't know about diarrhea but did notice remarks about pain and cramps. My mother-in-law told me about paregoric in the early 60s when I had babies. Didn't know it was opium which will kill any kind of pain. She gave it to me for baby's colic and to make him burp. It sure did work. When I had another baby in 1969 I was looking for it as I had previously been able to buy it in any drugstore over the counter but it was not available anywhere. That is also when I found out the ingredients and I was somewhat shocked that I had fed my babies opium which I knew was addictive. At least none of my children became addicted and none of them was into drugs later on although they all smoked cigarettes and two of them are addicted to those.

Please tell me where and how to obtain paregoric with a doctor's prescription. If it is being made again, where can it be obtained?

Your physician is the person to write you a prescription. Not all doctors believe in using paregoric because it is an opiate. You should talk to your own doctor and ask about the possibility of her/him writing a prescription for you. Take it to the pharmacy and if they do not have it, they should be able to special order it.

Lidocaine prescribed by your pediatrician workers wonders. Better late than never.

Does anyone know if Paregoric is available and, if so, where to get it? It was the only thing that helped my IBS issues. Thank you.

Am also recovering in AA 28 years. I have only 10% use of my pancreas and have gotten relief from a mixture of lomotil and paregoric. Now I can't find the paregoric anywhere. Could you share any info on obtaining it? I would really appreciate it.
Thx, Diane

Get your doctor to write a prescription for it. He or she will probably have to spell it out as last year it wasn't on the list of drugs that doctors can pull up. CVS Drugstore in Palatka, Florida filled it for me. CVS had Paregoric in their warehouse. Get your druggist to check and see if their warehouse has it, then get your doctor to write a prescription.

Ive used this drug since 1970 and its one of the few that works. Im at a total loss how to deal with this new problem. Maybe a compounding pharmacy. This is now a big issue for me. Any suggestions?

My pharmacist suggested liquid codeine. I've called Hi-Tech Pharmacal but they didn't really give me an answer. I've been waiting on a refill since October of last year and every month they just push back the "expected date" to the next month.This is the ONLY thing that stops the diarrhea and pain from sevire cramping for me. I sure wish I would of stocked up before this last dry spell. I pray they bring it back soon!
I've also had it compounded in the past when it was unavailable some years ago. However I'm not able to get it compounded recently. :(

I am besides myself not being able to get my paregoric. I need it to manage my IBS. How does something like this happen? I certainly would have stocked up if I knew this was going to be the case. I won't be able to travel and my "situation" is without my medicine.

I have found that DONNATOL also works, but it is not the same as Paregoric. Paregoric, in my experience, works quickly. Donnatol comes in tablets and liquid. It is available, but not covered by my insurance, I don't know if it would be covered by yours.
