Update 10/28/2018: Midrin and Midrin equivalents have been completely discontinued under FDA orders. (Learn more in this article: Say Goodbye to Midrin and Midrin Equivalents.) You may still be able to get what you need from a compounding pharmacy.
An equivalent to Midrin, which is made of the exact same ingredients as Midrin was, is now readily available. My pharmacist called to tell me the news and I had the pleasure of letting my headache specialist know.
Teri Robert of Migraine.com found that Macoven Pharmaceuticals makes the Midrin equivalent currently available. If your pharmacist doesn’t have it in stock, give them Macoven’s contact information and they should be able to order Isometh/Dich/Apap capsules (that stands for isometheptene mucate, dichloralphenazone, and acetaminophen, the components of Midrin). If not, a compounding pharmacy can still make it for you.
Though a Macoven employee told Teri that the company is working with the FDA to keep Midrin available, the fact stands that the drug has not been approved under the FDA’s current drug approval requirements. Unless the FDA changes the policy or a company spends the money on drug trials (which is highly unlikely), there’s no guarantee it will stay on the market.
Thanks for your sleuthing, Teri.
