1	Verwon Says: [Moderator] Friday, 12/5/2008 7:34:55 AM The only thing I can suggest is trying a web search.
2	June Says: Report Abuse Thursday, 1/8/2009 7:56:32 PM I haven't been able to find it either. Do you still have an empty box? Perhaps we can find manufacturer or 800 number to call. I don't have a box to look at.
3	Maryann Says: Report Abuse Friday, 1/9/2009 9:18:43 AM I called the distributor, Insight Pharmaceuticals, who said it is no longer made -- which we already knew. They said it was a dead issue and there would be no place that still has it in stock. There must be someplace.
4	Scott From Vermont Says: Report Abuse Saturday, 1/10/2009 9:12:34 AM I want to know who the rocket scientist was who decided to stop making it. That was a very stupid decision.
5	June Says: Report Abuse Saturday, 1/10/2009 9:08:02 PM I suggest we all look at BigLots! They usually carry closeout items for a while after it's taken off the shelves. After that, we are out of luck! It was a wonderful product. I can't imagine why they decided to discontinue it.
6	Verwon Says: [Moderator] Tuesday, 1/13/2009 7:36:24 PM One of the reasons it was discontinued has to do with it being in gum form and thus, children being attracted to it.
7	June Says: Report Abuse Friday, 1/16/2009 7:45:04 PM This is message I received from manufacturer: Too bad - this was a great product........ No, there are no plans to bring this product back. It was on the market for over 60 years and our basis for discontinuing was a lack of sales over the last five years. Best Regards, Insight Pharmaceuticals Consumer Affairs Dept. 1-800-344-7239
8	Jan Says: Report Abuse Sunday, 1/18/2009 6:48:52 AM Just found out - what a disappointment and frustration.
9	Tawny Says: Report Abuse Thursday, 1/22/2009 4:55:18 PM I think I found some Aspergum for sale online at canadianpharmacychoice. I placed an order but haven't received it yet so they could claim they are out of it. This is the only place I found it after hours of internet searching.
10	Grace Says: Report Abuse Thursday, 1/22/2009 8:46:34 PM Tawny, please do keep us posted!
11	Jack Says: Report Abuse Sunday, 1/25/2009 4:42:26 AM My wife swears by Aspergum when she has a sore throat. I can't imagine why they discontinued it. I thought there might be something wrong with it, but I certainly couldn't find any reports of problems.
12	Ruth M. Says: Report Abuse Wednesday, 1/28/2009 2:29:36 PM I always kept a box of aspergum on hand for scratchy sore throats. It was a great product. I can't believe it is no longer available.
13	June Says: Report Abuse Wednesday, 1/28/2009 8:56:55 PM Tawny - any word on your order from canadianpharmacychoice? I'm tempted to order a tub of it! Please let us all hear what you receive, if anything.
14	Roy Says: Report Abuse Wednesday, 1/28/2009 9:06:19 PM Perhaps if enough people call Insight Pharmaceuticals (see their phone number in post # 7), they might be compelled to bring it back to market. Although who knows if their reason for discontinuing it is the real one. Something similar happened with Drixoral last year, and many were up in arms about it.
15	Tawny Says: Report Abuse Thursday, 1/29/2009 8:41:30 AM 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
16	Tawny Says: Report Abuse Thursday, 2/12/2009 1:38:19 PM 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.
17	Chris Says: Report Abuse Wednesday, 2/25/2009 10:15:20 AM Heritage was the manufacturer of aspergum. As of 2006 it is no longer being made due to drop in demand/sales.
18	June Says: Report Abuse Wednesday, 2/25/2009 2:03:07 PM 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!
19	Cr Says: Report Abuse Sunday, 3/15/2009 8:21:40 AM 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 ?????
20	Jaytf123 Says: Report Abuse Thursday, 3/19/2009 7:45:44 PM 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.
