great product, I saw it disappearing off the shelves a few years ago, but still could find it. I have had a sore throat now for almost ten days, with aspergum it never lasted more than 2 or 3. In the past I have chewed a piece of gum mixed with a bc or goodies powder, and it provided some relief, havent tried that on this sickmess yet, It worked yoo well probably and the profit margin wasnt enough, thats usually why a good product is discontinued

Now is not a good time to be finding out that Aspergum is off the market! With the incidence of Flu hitting hard and increasing Aspergum was the perfect product to get aspirin quickly absorbed into the system without upsetting the stomach. At times, it has been the ONLY pain reducer that has worked. I knew I was desperate because I am not a fan of gum at all. But we all make exceptions when we find something that works. Please PLEASE bring it back! Flu season is here with 'attitude;' we need our relief.

It is was couple of days ago, probably May 26 or 27, on one of the morning Fox News shows where an older doctor gives medical news and advise and it is discussed. Good info! I don't know his name, but they call him Doc---Very interesting and informative doctor...He told about some new info about taking aspirin if anyone is having chest pains that might be a heart attack. He said that the new info is that chewing a piece of Aspergum got the medication into the blood stream more rapidly than an aspirin tablet. And no side effects... Makes sense to us....so we went to get some today...and could not find any. (Aspergum was a must in our house when I was growing up for when canker sores hurt or we had a sore throat or an injury in our mouth! As kids, we weren't given aspirin, but we WERE given Aspergum--and only for those reasons! And my kids were given it the seldom times it was the perfect medication for those reasons. -- The aspirin in the Aspergum would not be sitting in the stomach and apt to cause someone problems who has a bleeding problem from aspirin if it was used for what are signs of a heart attack. What goes??????

It always worked. Maybe that's why it was discontinued. My mom has a sore throat now and the Cloriseptic drops only work for a while.

My elderly Mom has coughing spasms. We have tried w/out success to find Aspergum to give her some relief. We can't find it anywhere either. It sure worked! Was around since I was little. Why did they stop making it ?????

I emailed the pharmacy in Canada asking for more info on aspergum - to see if it was really the same stuff. The email was returned - no such email account! Go figure!
When all else fails, just chew some childrens chewable flavored aspirin. It worked great on my last sore throat!!!!! I figure there is more than one way to skin a cat!

Heritage was the manufacturer of aspergum. As of 2006 it is no longer being made due to drop in demand/sales.

They apparently did send the Aspergum. It had a confirmation number showing that it was delivered but I never got it. Why?

I guess it was stolen out of my mailbox. The Post Office said that was happening in my area lately.
Go figure.

I haven't received my Aspergum yet but I haven't received a notice that my order can't be filled either.

I will let everyone know if I get it. I know how much Aspergum means to everyone. LOL
