OT - ADEKS

Noticed last week that our pharmacy didn't have adeks vitamin drops -- attributed it to the recently diagnosed newborns in our area -- previously the gastric bypass patients were to blame.

This morning went to pick up some scripts and they were still out. The pharmacist indicated their wholesaler heard they weren't available any longer. I mentioned aqua-adeks and they were going to do some checking, try to find vitamins from another source/brand.

Anybody know what's going on with adeks?

i don't know about the adek liquid because i take the stupid chewable ones but i heard that they were now making an adek that you could swallow instead of chewing it, i get mine directly from axcan so i don't have to worry about getting them, they have that program where you get scandi shakes (definately an "acquired" taste) and every month the fedex guy drops them off so i dunno

I have had ongoing problems getting things from Axcan. I use SourceCF now. I've been able to tolerate the SourceCF softgels much better than ADEKS. Also, SourceCF offers better incentives to order through them than a "Scandishake" that won't ever touch these lips. Check out my blog <a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://livingwellwithCF.blogspot.com">http://livingwellwithCF.blogspot.com</a> if you'd like to get a better idea of how I feel about Scandi.

The same thing happened to us. We spoke with the doc and I guess they did discontinue the adeks and made it better. Now it is aqua-adeks. That is what we are using for kyle. He didn't like the adeks, but he hates the aqua-adeks. He takes it, cuz he's really good about taking his meds, but the minute he sees me coming with it he says "yukky mom, don't like it"
It smells horrible, but you have to do what you have to do. He's such a good sport about it.
