I couldn't find my regular sinus pressure pill. Sudafed PE and all the house brands of such have been pulled off the shelf, citing some FDA "studies" that "suggest" it doesn't work. That little red pill has staved off migranes for 7+ years! Luckily, for now, I can still get it off the innerwebs BUT, I think they KNOW what works well and try to make it REALLY HARD to obtain. I'm an automobile mechanic for 42+ years and have seen attempts to strangulate the industry through limited parts availability and quality. NOW, THEY'RE DOING IT TO HEALTHCARE!!!

Sometimes over the counter drugs are moved behind the counter if it's being abused by a certain 'people group' or a new study finds an ingredient requires pharmacists to caution parents or people in general. Try a pharmacy with an on duty pharmacist to ask in case you tried to buy it at a store with no pharmacist - which I am sure you must have asked about it. As a fellow migraine sufferer, I sympathize. If my migraine is of the sinus variety, I need my Benedryl! Mostly they are aura type. Hope you found some!
