Update on Ashton & Parsons Infants' Powders

BACK IN MANUFACTURE

Ashton and Parsons Infants' Powders are a herbal product traditionally used in infants for the symptomatic relief of pain and gastric upset associated with teething. Ashton and Parsons Infants' Powders continue to be a reliable product used by many family generations for nearly 60 years.

Ashton and Parsons Infants' Teething Powders contain tincture of Matricaria which is extracted from German Chamomille flowers.

We are pleased to announce that the product is back in manufacture and being supplied through numerous routes to the market. Our commitment to the brand and to restoring production as soon as possible has exceeded our original timescales of the middle of 2012.

Alliance Pharmaceuticals Ltd acquired Ashton and Parsons Infants' Teething Powders mid-2011. Following the acquisition of Ashton and Parsons Powders, Alliance became aware of minor irregularities with the product licence and production was temporarily paused while these were resolved. The machines on which Ashton and Parsons Powders are manufactured are old and therefore require a large amount of upkeep to keep them operational. We are working on a solution to upgrade our machines in 2013 which will mean we will be able to supply the full market demands.

Product can be obtained through several local independent high street pharmacies and the following national and regional stores:
