Where To Purchase Paregoric (Page 8) (Top voted first)
UpdatedI'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?
Laura...
Do you live near a Costco? (pharmacy department)...I read...somewhere, that the cost for paregoric is really not that bad there? I wish you the best of luck in "saving your nickles and dimes"...God, I don't know what I'd do without my insurance! Yes I do...I would budget in my paregoric, I truly would! The best to you!
Betty,
You my dear are a savior to many. I gave the info to my pharmacist at Sams Club tonight. Here's praying all goes well.
I read on the internet that as of August 2012 it is available again in the U.S. I am having extended pain from oral surgery and can get nothing stronger than ridiculously inadequate ibuprofen. I have decided doctors generally ddont understand pain or are too scared now to prescribe what really works especially for those of us with low pain tolerance levels. Mom used it successfully back in the 50s and it worked like a wonder. We've gone backwards in pain medications because of the abusive use of them by others and now we're in the scary position of not being able to get what we truly need for painful procedures based on the misuse of others!!! I will continue to hunt for paregoric so that I can know I have more control of pain and am not at the mercy of unbelievikng or skeptical doctors.
Linda and all....
Good morning!
Do you live in a large city (or small town, like me)?
I have been able to purchase the original paregoric since it once again became available...
I agree with your thoughts on the subject of pain...
Hope all goes well with you.
Betty
Yes, but WHERE do you get it?
please please tell me where or how to find it.
DEB, YOU WILL HAVE TO CONTACT ALL YOUR LOCAL PHARMACYS AND ASK THE PHARMACISTS TO ORDER IT OR IF THEY WILL BE STOCKING IT.
Hi Deb?
Hi Tech Pharmaceutecals (in New York) is the Company that makes it, and ships it out to ordering pharmacies...have you read all the past posts on paregoric? We talk about them...what town and state do you live in? Maybe I can help you find a pharmacy that carries it? The best to you, and...pls, don't give up on finding this wonderful "drug" ...for so many of us! Sincerely, Betty
I've used paregoric as an antidiarrheal for nearly thirty years. I'm desperate for it now. Please give me the name and address of the pharmacy in Trinidad where your mom got you some. If I can get some paregoric to relieve my misery I will be forever grateful. I've tried everything else which hasn't helped.
Hi - I just now called Discount Drug Mart in Lakewood, Ohio. They now have paregoric available again - just need to have my doctor write a prescription order for it - which I will do first thing in the morning! Hallelujah!!BSFYD
Hi Betty, thanks for your reply....I managed to get through the abscess tooth situation but plan to look at these places suggested on this site, for when something like that happens again and the prescribed medication is simply not enough.
I will certainly do the same thing, hoard it that is. at least one bottle in case it goes off the market again. I have been so miserable with out it, and I am sure I am not the only person. I never knew it was so popular.
WHAT A GREAT DAY FOR ALL OF US. I THINK MY CALL TO MICHELLE O. HELPED. I CAN EAT OUT AGAIN, BUT I'LL STILL WATCH OUT FOR THE 'MSG' . I KEEP A SMALL AMOUNT OF LIQUID GOLD IN MY PURSE ( IN A USED LITTLE KETCHUP BOTTLE I GOT AT WALMART) I'M SO HAPPY I COULD JUST S--T, O WAITE I DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THAT ANY MORE LOL, O HAPPY DAY ( - ;
Sometimes I really wonder about this little brain of mine!
Why haven't I thought about carrying a small amount of it with me at all times??? I am literally housebound with fear of an attack, feel "safe" if husband and I are going somewhere (or just me) when I take a "swig" of it before leaving...take the whole bottle with us if we're going to be away from home for any duration...but, duh(!) why, oh why didn't I think of carrying a small bottle with me at all times? It IS a RX, not as if I'm carrying an illegal substance....again, "happy days are here again"...Thank you!
p.s...as of a couple posts ago, I just realized something...(am I correct in this assumption?) if we respond to the post being made (right under it) our reply goes only to the "author" of that post, but if we scroll down to the bottom of all posts, where it says POST A REPLY TO THIS TOPIC, it goes out to all who have posted re this subject? Right?
Thanks!
To Betty, et al; The spot underneath all the posts is the only place this site has for people to write a comment. The comment goes up above all the other comments, as the most recent one. Everyone can see them all. It's Ok. = ]
Betty, I keep mine in my purse at all times, underneath my asprin bottle. Buy a small glass bottle of ketchup at wallmart by the deli, empty it out or use the ketchup. It has a nice tight seal so it wont leak. ( ;
Betty if you ask your pharmacy they will give you a little med bottle to put in your purse
Thanks, Laura!
Betty
Emma...
Just saw your Post, re Paregoric and big Gov!
But, remember...Paregoric is back, hopefully for good, yes? And...I really think it was several on this Site, writing and "bugging" the manufacturer to start making it again...we do have fears of it running out again, to to lack of supply and demand...I oh so pray that doesn't happen!
Betty
