I'm hoping someone can provide some clarification and suggestions to me - thank you in advance. My old man just got diagnosed with insulinoma, and given his advanced adrenal, we've opted to treat with pred. I have spent the better part of the day trying to find a pharmacy that carries or can get the brand name PediaPred, as the generic is not recommended. I have been told by 5 different pharmacies that it has been discontinued...citing either UCB or Medeva as the manufacturer - neither manufacturer is willing to give me information as I am just a consumer. So, can anyone verify that PediaPred has been discontinued? And if so, what exact generic is safe to use (as I know some reportedly use alcohol and/or sugars)? I appreciate any and all help I can get on this! Thank you in advance! Betsy and The FuzzButts [Posted in FML 7557]
