I have scoliosis and have always taken Darvon prudently for pain. My doctor said it was taken off US market, but may be available elsewhere. I have taken this drug for many years with no ill effects and cannot find an adequate replacement.

Heynmgould,
As it was taken off the market for legal reasons, I don't believe you will find it in the US anywhere. You can google "purchase darvon" but again the suppliers are limited as it has been discontinued in many markets. Might have to investigate a replacement.
Best wishes,
Laurie
