Why can't I get Actifed any more? I have always had sinus headaches that
only old style actifed could cure. I can't find it any more. I never cared
for the pseudoephedrine. It was the triprolidine that always helped. I'd
take one actifed and one advil together and that would work great. Actually
my dream remedy would be a combination of only advil and triprolidine.
Problem is nobody sells anything with triprolidine in it any more.

Yes you can still get it, but in the US you will have to sign for it because
of the pseudoephedrine. I usually get the generic (Aprodine). It will be
behind the counter and you will have to ask for it. If they don't have it
just ask them to order some for you - it is really cheap. I have found,
like you, that the triprolidine works best for me, and I do wish there was a
combo with an NSAID, that would be a great combination. If they order from
McKesson the order number for the box of 24 tabs is 3264058
