Is this a possible substitute for Bronkaid which has been taken off the market?

Bronkaid caplets contain the following active ingredients per caplet:
- 25 mg ephedrine sulfate
- 400 mg guaifenesin

Broncholate also contains the same two active ingredients of Ephedrine + Guaifenesin. Listed below are the available forms and dosages (which you can compare to Bronkaid):
Syrup: 6.25mg/5ml + 100mg/5ml
Tablet: 12.5mg + 200mg, 25mg + 200mg, 25mg + 400mg

Based on the above info, this is considered to be a possible substitute for Bronkaid. Keep in mind though that since they have the same active ingredients, it may only be a matter of time before Broncholate becomes banned as well. I'd just make sure that you are getting yours from a legitimate source.

I hope this helps!

I spoke with Bayer, Bronkaid has not been banned nor discontinued. It will be restocked on all shelves by end of March 2012.
