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

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