Agreed. The phenylephrine doesn't work worth crap I always buy the real Sudafed behind the counter. Frankly, I think most people don't realize that the real Sudafed is behind the counter and that the products were switched years ago.

exactly, I don't think most discussing this issue are aware of the change. If the product is safe not sure the fda needs to ban it, but they should at a minimum for different branding to avoid this confusion.
