Allopurinol 100 Mg Tablets Not Available

Updated

My local dispensers tell me 100 mg tablets are no longer available from any manufacturer, even though the 300 mg tablets are still available.
Does anyone know anything about this?

My husband just had bunion surgery this morning and the doctor informed us he also found gout when the toe was opened however, you say your local dispensers tell you that 100 mg tables are not longer available but I had to pick up a RX for him when he left the hospital and it was for Allopurinol 100mg. We got it filled at a wal-greens pharmacy

AS of November 6, 2014, Express-Scripts does not have ANY Allopurinol 300 mg OR 100 mg. The E-S druggist told me that they haven't had any 300 mg since January 2014. The customer service at E-S told me to get it at a local pharmacy and then deleted my prescription to E-S. Now I have to get an appointment with the doctor and get a new prescription and then refill it at with a much larger co-pay every month. I tried to get E-S to give me the email or phone of the DOD office that monitors the E-S contract but they told me that they do not have that data! Obviously they didn't want me to put a complaint that might interfere at contract renewal time. I am sure that I will be able to find the contact information on my own. Except for the comment about 100 mg tablets, I could not find any other information on the internet that even suggests that there may be a shortage of Allopurinol. of any strength.
