Looks like the powers that be are doing everything they can to make the remergence of "Covid the cold" a HUGE, miserable pain in the arse.

Yep...damn purple drank got that cough option taken off the market completely, and now anything with Phenylephrine, which was substituted for pseudoephedrine in many non-prescription cold and allergy medicines after the latter was restricted amid reports of idiots making meth out of it, is probably gone as well.
Damn addicts.

This is why I don’t wash my hands and eat food off the floor.

Let the immune system feast.

Because it didn't do anything. Scan your ID and get the good shite with pseudoephedrine from behind the counter.

Like you or not, It was a boneheaded move.

But I'm glad they gave you a tap on the wrist. Wasn't worth a banning

Yup..sorry, baw.

Try the unisom version with
Doxylamine succinate..that's the crap in Nyquil that actually knocks you out...the other unisom versions are just diphenhydramine which is Benadryl.

If true then this sucks.. cough syrup w/codeine is the only thing that will knock out my cough every couple years when i have a bad one, so that i can actually rest and heal up.. think i still had some left over from my last bad cough 3 yrs ago that i just threw out, so now im screwed if i need some again .

The FDA began restricting its use for children's cough remedy in 2017.... Just anecdotal but I can remember anytime myself or children had a illness with a bad cough we always got prescribed cough syrup with codeine. I cant remember the last time I was prescribed it and I feel like a crack head asking for it, but it sure as hell worked better than anything else.

Phenylephrine

Codeine cough syrup

Clorox

Its not about phenylephrine being useless.. its about CVS shelves being empty of cold and flu drugs.

The signs are there. These morons are coming with shite again.

Smart money would be to stockpile hand sanitizer and cold medicines without phenylephrine
