From what I could gather on the topic, "recent enforcement action by the FDA against manufacturers of paregoric and opium tincture suggests that opium tincture's availability in the U.S. may be in jeopardy."

It is still actually available, today, by prescription, but in a more purified form and is only prescribed under certain strict medical criteria.

You can learn more about it here:

Listed below is a pharmacy-locator site that uses your zip code to find nearby pharmacies within a given mile range:
https:/­/­netcard.welldynerx.com/­Member-Services/­Pharmacy-Locator.aspx

Phone numbers and addresses are included in the list after you verify your zip code; so I would suggest calling a number of them to see if anyone can fill your client's prescription. Your client may have to consider looking at online pharmacies as a last resort if this doesn't work out.

Please post back if you need information on finding legitimate online pharmacies here in the U.S.

Hope this helps!
