Blairex Broncho Saline Discontinued

I still have several bottles of albuterol lying around the house that I would like to finish. However, I've learned recently that Blairex no longer manufactures the compressed saline bottles I used to use. I was just curious if anyone else has had to make a change due to this? What brand and where do you buy your saline now?

Yep, me too, couldn't believe it was discontinued!! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif" border="0">

So now I'm using the pink vials of .09% sodium chloride just to finish up my stash of albuterol. Then I'm switching over to the premixed vials of albuterol.

The pharmacist said that there was a similar saline called 'Simply Saline' sold over the counter, but I found it too expensive for such a small can. Plus they aren't metered doses. Here's a <a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.drugstore.com/templates/brand/default.asp?brand=31189&aid=336064&aparam=simply_saline">linky</a>.
