You can't get it now though - for some reason.
It is still available but you have to ask at the pharmacy counter for it and some chemists don't stock it - failing that it's usually available in the Health & Beauty section on Amazon (and I'd imagine Ebay too). I think it's become more difficult to find because it can be used in bomb making.
