Chlor Trimeton 12 Hour: Discontinued?

I've been able to purchase the 12 hour version of Chlor Trimeton (by
Schering-Plough, active ingredient is chlorpheniramine maleate) until
a few weeks ago, when all of the stores in my area suddenly stopped
carrying it. I've looked online, and it seems no online pharmacy has
it in stock either. Has Schering discontinued the product? Does
anyone know where I can find it?

Thanks!

Last year, the local pharmacy could no longer get the generic 12 hr
time release chlorpheniramine maleate. About a month ago, they told me they
could get it again. The bad news is that this particular version is
generic and requires a prescription. But it's dirt cheap, as drugs go.
