Darvon Compound-did it disappear??

[Onco Dude is Back!]

Had a patient come into pharmacy today with a script for this. Allergy
to opioids (true allergy, too) and a liver transplant (can't have
acetaminophen). Looked hi and lo, could not find either. Had to change
to Darvon HCL and get aspirin off the shelf.

I know lilly sold off the Darvon line to aaiPharma, but e=what happened
to the compound/ Is it extinct? Bob G, Glen, any regular your thoughts?

==========================
Have NOT seen Darvon Compound, or Darvon-ASA, or Darvon 32
in what seem like 10 years....

Saw Lipoflavoind being advertized on TV the other day... Gosh I have
NOT seen that stuff in 25 years? Disapeared from the shelves with
C-Quens (spelling ? after all these years I forgot)...
