Can anyone find Karvol Decongestant Capsules?

I used these last winter with DS and went to buy some again, but they don't seem to be in stock anywhere online or IRL. Anyone know where to get some or what the story is?

I don't know what the story is, but I've also been unable to get Karvol for the past year or so. We now use Olbas Oil instead; it seems to work as well as Karvol, though I preferred Karvol's smell.

I got some in Sainsbury's about a month ago...

oooh I was looking for these last week and the chemist didn't stock them anymore! shame, as i really liked them. We got a plug in instead.

I couldn't find any this summer as well as I bring back overseas.. Am not impressed as they were fab. I got Olbas but its not as good IMO.

Oh no! DS calls it sleepy juice, and it really helps to settle him if he's not 100%. Gutted.

No Karvol and no medised either :-(
I got the last box of Karvol in a branch of Morrisons this time last year - have 2 capsules left!

I went looking for Karvol last week and couldn't understand why nowhere had it - went for olbas oil instead

Much prefer vicks vapour rub anyway

Karvol has been discontinued by the manufacturer. It lost its product licence in Nov 2011 as the company that made it was bought out by reckitt benckiser
