People did ask a similar question over on the Meds forum. Seems Nardil wasn't the original (I was thinking that it was) to find the original manufacturer / recipe for the medication that some people were, in fact, stabilised on, over a number of years, you have to go back, back, back, further than that.
I don't know what happened. If it was greed to push the prices up. If it was desire to curb availability to prevent toxicity (e.g., more similar to my understanding of the reduction and cessatoin of supply of barbiturates).
I don't know if it would be possible to get the manufacturer manufacturing them, again, or how much it would cost to have them produced. Presumably it's old technology. Presumably manufacturing technology isn't the problem.
So... What is the problem? The manufacturer would be the people I would write to to know why they ceased production and what (if anything) can be done to have it resumed.
Maybe it is stockpiled somewhere... Who knows.
