my i caps smell funny and sometimes they don't. was wondering if there has been a recall or something ? ## Hello, Diane! How are you? Are you referring to the vitamins manufactured by Alcon? I've not found anything about a recall, but they aren't actually required to report such things to the FDA. Have you tried contacting the manufacture? Which formulation are you taking? You can contact Alcon by calling them toll free at 800-757-9785. The FDA classifies this as a nutritional supplement and it may cause nausea, in some people that take it.

the eye drop is really expensive and i really need it my doctor said that this is the most effective for the condition that i have. so please help ## The manufacturer of Nevanac, Alcon, Inc. does have a patient assistance program that you can apply for to get assistance with this eye medication. You do have to meet certain criteria and I don't have all the details on it, but you can call them at 800-222-8103. Is there anything else I can help with?

I have been trying to find Prefrin as well. I used to use it in the 80's & early 90' then it just went away from the stores. I do know that it was made in South Ft. Worth by Alcon Labs. It is still available ???? It was the BEST eye redness relief product on the market... Thanks ## From what I've been seeing on the web, I don't think it's still being manufactured anymore. However you may want to look into what's called a "compounding pharmacy". I don't know all of what goes into it, but apparently these types of places can formulate something for you, provided that you have a valid prescription for it. The list of ingredients contained in Prefrin Eye Drops are: Phenylephrine hydrochloride (1,2 mg/mL) + Liquifilm [polyvinyl alcohol] (14 mg/mL) + Be...
