I am currently taking zafirlucast and am with the severe asthma clinic at Southampton General Hospital. I have been taking this medication for a number of years, previously on Singulair ( now Montelucast) but was allergic to it , I am trying to find a chemist in Southampton that still has Zafirlucast in stock asthere seems to be bo alternative. Can any one help?

Hello. Was recently prescribed Zafirlucast. No chemist stocked it. Finally found out that it is unavailable in this country. The doctor was very apologetic. Unfortunately he said to me there is no alternative.

I hope your asthma clinic finds you an alternative. Please let me know - if you wouldn't mind
