Aspergum is no longer manufactured, but there must be some places that might still have stock.

I am so disappointed that you can't buy aspergum anymore. It is the only thing that ever helped with my sore throat. I wish they would consider bringing it back!!!!

I want to know who the rocket scientist was who decided to stop making it. That was a very stupid decision.

Aspergum was discontinued in 2006. The best way to duplicate this gum is to buy children's aspirin and fold a stick of your favorite gum around the tablet. You may chew this combo every 4 to 6 hours for a sore throat.

Hi everyone. I used to rely on Aspergum as well as aspirin based theraflu as I did not like the way lonzenges made my tongue numb.

Well, since both products were discontinued, here is what I do now: I grind up four aspirin in a mortar and pestal that I normally use for spices. I add this powder to a cup of hot lemon tea (eg Lemon Lift from Bigelow) that has enough sugar or honey to hide the salty/bitter of the aspirin. You have to stir really well, and some of the filler will fall out to the bottom - that's ok.

Sip the tea slowly over 15 minutes or so and by the time you finish the cup your sore throat will be gone!!!!

I just saw all of the posts on the Aspergum.. I recently got that super bug and Ive literlly been sick for about a month now.. I just get over one thing and then something else starts... This last bout my throat was on fire and its been that way for about 9 days... Ive been to the Dr's and they havent given me anything to help it. My 80 year old mother told me to go and get some aspergum... I went to several pharmacies and they didnt even know what is was so I figure would look on line... So disappointed to find out I cant even get it... Well I improvised... Got some chewable baby asprin and gum... It helped me more then everything I've done up till now... Hope this helps someone in the same spot... Well I sent Insight Pharmaceuticals an email and asked them to please reconsider getting the product back on the market... If you come to this site and see my message please do the same... I think if they see that public interest in this product is still there maybe they might reconsider...

Aspergum was the best. I wish I could buy some. I went to 7 different stores and found none! After seeing this site, I know I'm not alone in my quest for this wonderful product.

I think if anyone still has it it's expired. They stopped manufacturing years ago. It was the greatest thing for a sore throat. The last time I bought some I could only get it online. When I ran out and contacted the company for more they told me they were no longer manufacturing it, they had to make cutbacks and that's one of the things they decided to give up.

I have to agree with Aspergum's pain relief after having my tonsils out. The only thing that helped. Hope they do bring it back. Better than lozenges.

This is message I received from manufacturer: Too bad - this was a great product........

No, there are no plans to bring this product back. It was on the market for over 60 years and our basis for discontinuing was a lack of sales over the last five years.

My mother used to give me aspergum when I had throat infections. I am 31 years old now and wished they made it to this day. It was the best and fast way to get aspirin in your system, especially if you have tonsillitis. I just found out they did not make it anymore when I recently had a really bad infection and my throat swelled shut. This really sucks. If someone finds some let me know please.

As of April 27th, 2016 an article by drug store news was published discussing how Retrobrands USA is looking to bring Aspergum back to the market. According to Jeff Kaplan, president of Retrobrands USA, 2017 is the year they anticipate bringing it back.

I think I found some Aspergum for sale online at canadianpharmacychoice. I placed an order but haven't received it yet so they could claim they are out of it.

This is the only place I found it after hours of internet searching.

I always kept a box of aspergum on hand for scratchy sore throats. It was a great product. I can't believe it is no longer available.

I want my ASPERGUM! THIS IS THE WORST SORE THROAT I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY ENTIRE LIFE. I SENT MY 80 YEAR OLD MOTHER OUT TO LOOK FOR IT, AND THE STORES SEARCHED AND SEARCHED SO EVIDENTLY THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW THAT THEY DON'T CARRY THE PRODUCT ANYMORE! CEPACOL DOES NOT WORK, COUGH DROPS DO NOT WORK, THOSE SPRAYS DO NOT WORK! I WANT MY ASPERGUM BACK!

Make your own aspergum. Here's what I have been doing since I've been unable to buy Aspergum. Purchase a bottle of buffered aspirin (keep your stomach happy). Put it in a shallow bowl and use the bottom of a spoon to grind up into a powder. Buy gum of your choice (I use wringley's or Extra spearomint - great at concealing taste of the aspirin.) Optionally use chewable aspirin.
Wash hands - duh!
Unwrap the gum, and wet it slightly. Dip gum in the powdered aspirin till it is completely coated. Fold the gum stick over & over & try to mix the aspirin into the gum. Chew immediately or let it dry out and then wrap it in wax paper or plastic wrap or just put in a ziploc bag (be sure it is completely dry before wrapping it in anything. Moldy anything probably isn't going to help your throat.)
