Common in Vietnam

Active ingredient: Terpin hydrate + codeine

Terpin-Codein is not available in the US

Why it isn't sold here

Popular cough tablet. Terpin hydrate was withdrawn by the FDA for lack of proven efficacy, and codeine cough products are scheduled/Rx-restricted in the US, so this exact combination has no US equivalent; US codeine-guaifenesin syrups are the nearest Rx option.

Bringing it into the US

The FDA generally does not allow importing unapproved medicines. Personal importation is only a limited enforcement discretion — typically up to a 90-day supply for a serious condition with no US treatment, and controlled substances are effectively barred. Do not buy from gray-market pharmacies.
