I heard that the company that makes syndol has been taken over by the company who make lemsip and they are waiting for the licence to be renewed.
Hope this helps

I was told by a boots assistant that the manufacturers of syndol said that the backlog of legislation was beginning to clear and it shouldn't be long now before syndol was back in the chemists.
no
Syndol is back already at most chemists. Boots, Lloyds Pharmacy, the Garden Pharmacy etc.
I was told by a Tesco pharmacist that Syndol should be back in production by the end of February..... I certainly hope so!!

Paramol for tension headaches
Syndol contains codeine, which is a controlled substance due to its potential for misuse and addiction. In some countries, there may be stricter regulations on the sale of medications containing codeine, leading to limitations on availability. Additionally, supply chain issues or manufacturer limitations can also contribute to Syndol being difficult to find in chemists.
II I phoned the manufacturer of syndol, Reckitt & Benkister, and they said that this second time of unavailability is due to the tablets content having to be overseen by the MHRA, and not a licensing issue as was the case last time.
Yes temporarily. from what i understand its due to one of the chemicals in syndol that relax the muscles that people can find addictive. according to the manager and my local boots store we should expect them back on our shelves in april.
As of my last update, there has been no official announcement regarding the return of Syndol to store shelves. Availability can vary by region and depends on the manufacturer's production and distribution plans. It's best to check with local pharmacies or retailers for the most current information.
Taking Syndol every day is not recommended without medical supervision. Syndol contains a combination of ingredients, including paracetamol, codeine, and caffeine, which can lead to potential side effects and dependency, particularly due to the codeine. Regular use can also mask underlying health issues and increase the risk of liver damage from excessive paracetamol intake. It's important to consult a healthcare professional for appropriate pain management strategies.
