Wind

For many years I have relied on Windsettlers, bought at discount, to make life more bearable. Suddenly these have disappeared, without explanation, from all outlets. Amazon, Boots and other stockists say out of stock, or unavailable. I feel frantic. Does anyone know what is the reason?

Nearest Savers in Ipswich, where I usually stock up, also without stock last Friday. I am hoping someone may be able to find old stock when they go to other towns. Unfortunately, I live out in sticks.

Hope you do, as they are lifeline. If not try charcoal, or peppermint tea

I find WINDEZE and DEFLATINE helpful (all available at Tesco). Incidentally, there seem to be an increasing number of "pill famines" and they are not all to do with Brexit. Things are getting very worrying! Good luck.

They had them in my local Superdrug today. I buy Boots own brand wind relief tablets which work the same and are cheaper.We

Thanks, I have bought Windeeze as a backstop but they are expensive. Unfortunately I live a long way from the big shops, and used to rely on Amazon to buy Windsettlers at a discount. Strange thing yesterday that they may be bringing them back at an increased price, but Boots website says will definitely not be in stock again. Very sudden disappearance, and no explanation.

Any type of simethicone based product would be great! If you can find cheap Gas-X on Amazone go for it

Thanks. I found it in local Co-op, but at high price of course. Will search online for cheaper supply and give a try.
