There are several answers to that questions floating around -- the number one answer being that the company discontinued the drug because of the availability of newer antihistamines and decongestants.

Another answer is that the company was making adjustments to its manufacturing plants and had to stop making the drug until those changes were made, but then the drug would be back. Honestly, I think the first answer is probably the correct one, but there are people on this site who may disagree.
