Is Disobrom an excellent substitute for Drixoral? Is it available OTC and/or Scrip?

Disobrom contains the active Ingredients: DEXBROMPHENIRAMINE MALEATE + PSEUDOEPHEDRINE SULFATE

According to the FDA and the manufacturer "Sandoz", Disobrom has been discontinued and is no longer available.

Referenced from:
http://fdadrugs.legalview.com/legal-issue/disobrom

The following drugs have also been noted to be discontinued (which includes Drixoral):
BROMPHERIL; DISOBROM; DISOMER; DISOPHROL; DRIXORAL PLUS; RESPORAL

It appears that the ingredient "Dexbrompheniramine" is the reason for being discontinued; as Pseudoephedrine is still largely available via prescription.

Have you asked your doctor about other alternatives?
