About 98% of all stores took coricidin off the shelves and you must show ID to purchase it. As for all cough syrups containing Dextromethorphan HBr or Dextromethorphan Palistrix under the age of 18 yrs. can only purchase two bottles at a time and the more you buy it the more they watch you, be carefull DEA can be all over your ass if you ain't. peace
