Migraine Syndol with doxylamine

5 replies

Whomarriedwho · 30/11/2024 20:57

The original Syndol which contains the anti histamine doxylamine is one of the few meds that helps my chronic migraine. I’m really struggling to get hold of it. Can anyone suggest anywhere or know of any online sources that are currently stocking it. Feeling desperate.

Occasionally I do see it in pharmacies. The light blue packet is the ‘new’ stuff without the doxylamine, but from time to time I do see pharmacies that have the dark blue packet in. That one contains the original combo with the doxylamine.
Try popping in to a few different pharmacies over the next week if you can.

I did order some online about 2 years ago but I can’t for the life of me remember where it was.

The dark blue packet are the only ones that helped my migraines.

I don’t understand why they don’t keep making it. It’s obviously in high demand. They are really the only meds that work.

I didn't think it was sold anymore in the UK? (the dark blue one that is)

It wasn’t for a few years but then it was relicensed.

I last saw it about 6 weeks ago in Boots. They had both the light and dark packets. I have seen it sparingly over the last 2 years, but I think they sell out fast.

Boots have it in, I’ve just bought some a week or so back. Neatly jumped with joy! Think the pharmacist thought I was mad!
