Pseudoephedrine isn't banned, you just have to ask the pharmacist for it.

Right, 'banned' is a blut word here, I suppose I should have used 'restricted schedule' as per officialdom but the earlier HN article used 'banned'. Incidentally, many countries have banned it or made it only available on script (i.e.: where I live).

Never tried to get it myself since it went on script. Personally, I find it repulsive stuff - makes me feel sicker than the cold or flu alone so I no longer use it (makes me feel queasy on the stomach).
