"Drixoral was prescribed for me by my primary physician when it was a prescription drug and when it was changed to over-the-counter medication and has been the only allergy medication to completely relieve my symptoms. Within the last few weeks, local pharmacies have been unable to receive this product. Therefore, I now experience nasal and post-nasal thin watery drainage with resulting throat discomfort."

"This is the only allergy medicine that has ever worked for me. I've been using it since it was a prescription-only capsule, and I'm honestly suffering without it. Why they took it off the market is beyond reason?"

"My doctors have tried repeatedly for years to find another drug to replace Drixoral Cold & Allergy Tablets in the treatment of my allergies. All have failed. In fact, every time Drixoral has been removed from my regimen, I have gone into asthmatic bronchitis. Needless to say, it distresses me greatly to know that Drixoral is not readily available now."

"I've had allergies (hay fever) my whole life, since I was 5 years old. I've been taking a prescribed medicine called Dexaphen SA for the most part of it. It seems to be the same as Drixoral, or very close to it. These are the only medicines that help me recover. Without it, I will keep getting worse and eventually will end up with a sinus infection. This is the best medicine I have ever used to get rid of allergy symptoms. Please start making it again, I can't find it at any pharmacy."

"I've used this product for years, and I agree with the other comments. It's the best. However, recently, I've been unable to get it. I guess if a product is not highly advertised, it's not popular enough to be marketable."

"I've tried everything for my allergies since they get so bad from where I live. A friend of mine gave me Drixoral to try, and it did magic. Not one sign of allergies the next day! It does make me drowsy, so I take it at night and wake up with no symptoms. Sometimes, even during the day, I'll still be drowsy, so I tried to cut the pill in half so it wouldn't be too strong for me, but that was impossible."

"I have also used Drixoral since it was available only by prescription. Bring it back, please! I have been lucky enough to find local stores that still have a supply of Drixoral."

"This needs to be back on the store shelves at once. It is much more effective for allergic rhinitis and nasal congestion than any other product on the market."

"Drixoral really worked for me, and now I can't buy it anymore. This is what happened to the 12-hour Contact time release capsules, which also worked great and now can't be purchased."

"I've been taking Disophrol since Drixoral wasn't available, and they work just the same. It is the same ingredients and made by the same manufacturer - Schering-Plough."
