I Am Trying To Find Out Where I Can Purchase

I am trying to find out where I can purchase Ergoloid Mesylate (Hydergine) here in the USA. I have been on this wonderful drug for an elevated Prolactin Level for approx. 25 years, with amazing success and no side effects, but Mutual Pharmaceutical has issued a recall because of "impurities" in the drug. Is there another manufacturer of this drug in the USA? I keep reading that Novartis still makes the drug but I can't find a way to talk to them to find out where to get their medications. They have sold this drug in the US at least in the past. My problem is this: I don't want to start Bromocryptine (for instance) if Ergoloid Mesylate is going to be available again soon. Actually, I don't want to start Bromocryptine at all if I can help it because it does have the potential for rather serious side effects which Ergoloid Mesylate does not. Is there a way for me to learn whether Mutual Pharmceutical is planning to go into production of this drug any time soon? Thank you so much for your help.

Sincerely,
Jan Painter
