Didn't they bring Marplan back? Not that it did you any good back then, of course, I was just wondering for curiosity's sake.
Also, the small non-chain pharmacy I use also does compounding, and the pharmacist there said that when drug companies discontinue drugs, they can compound them. He mentioned that he has another patient on some non-psychotropic drug (I forgot what) that was discontinued twenty years ago. It works for her so her doctor still prescribes it and he still compounds it.
So, even if one of our favorite meds is discontinued, we are never left out in the cold! The local compounding pharmacy is to the rescue!
