just got off the phone with my cousin, a BAD asmatic who uses primatene mist a lot. she remineded me that these are all banned after december 31 of this year due to the fact that they use chlorofluorocarbon.

according to her, the new ones don't work anywhere near as well as the chlorofluorocarbon based ones, and most of them cost $10-30 also.

might want to stock up if you have asmatic kids, spouse, etc. might even want to buy a few just for barter material.

public service announcement.

That's a great heads-up, Chad. Anyone who suffers from or knows someone who suffers from asthma knows how badly a person needs that stuff during an attack!

this must have been on the mainstream news lately. i went to a pharmacy on friday to get vitamin c, and they were all sold out of primatene.
