Encora was prescribed for me 3 years ago after a complete hysterectomy and it has worked wonderfully. I was just informed by my MD that it has been discontinued. Is there anything else on the market that provides everything that Encora did?

I am allergic to 'cod fish' and to ''soy''. I have had very severe abdominal problems for months now, since I started taking Encora vitamins. My physician gave them to me, and possibly was unaware of the fact that I am allergic to soy, cod fish. I always am a Type A bloodtype 57 yr old female, and I do not absorb calcium carbonate well at all. I do best on Citracal supplements. Thus this vita...

My doctor prescribed Encora to me after I explained to her I was experiencing mood swings and feeling tired all the time. I had had a partial hysterectomy 14 years prior, but not any hormones due to my levels were still up. Took Encora with no side effects, felt better than I did in years. One day went to re-fill and my pharmacist informed me of the recall. Since then, I have been taken another Women's Vitiamin Pack (6 tablets verse 2) daily) and am re-experiencing the emotional mood swings, feeling really tired. Had my doctor check the ingredient of the vitiams and she gave me a list of additional vitiamins for me to take along with the 6 pills already taking. Still not feeling much better. Does any one know when a vitiamin like Encora will be on the market? Read More Read Less

I would like to inform users of this vitamin that I contacted the company today, 1/13/10 and was informed the vitamin, although currently unavailable, it has not been discontinued. There are hopes that the vitamin will be available once again soon.

My Dr. suggested for overall energy, memory, fatigue and convenience! When will they be back on market or what other product has similiar balance or vitamins etc. I recommended to several friends including my pharmacist, who all loved them. Now I'm retired, recovering from surgery and just can't get my Mogo back 11 Help

The omega-3 helped in lowering my cholestrol and I also found that the Encora had enhanced my memory and maintained my energy level to the max. After it was recalled and my discontinued of the vitamin and I found that my energy level had dropped drastically and I have a hard time remembering thinks unless I write it down. The 3 years that I was on Encora I felt great and I'm a mom of 2 highly intelligent and energenic children (9yr son and 3 1/2 yr old daughter) and an entreprenuer (16 yrs) and trying to balance everything is very exhausting. However, when I was on the vitamin (Encora) exhaustion was not even in the picture. Since May 2009 (after I had completed my last pack) I have tried other mutivitamins and other supplements, I noticed they did not help. I'm always tired now and my memory is very poor. I need to be back on Encora (I don't know if the FDA had lifted the recall). I believed Encora had worked very well for me personally.Read More Read Less

My doc prescribed for fatigue and general nutritional supplement. I *really* liked it, and like others was really dismayed when I could not get it due to "manufacturer back order." I learned myself thru the web about the manufacturer recall and was concerned. Apparently ALL similar products were pulled due to lower than acceptable standards in the plant...I was JUST able to order Encora again, today, so perhaps all is resolved. I am looking forward to being back on it! I feel like I noticed a big difference being off of it for now about 3 months.Read More Read Less

I developed a rash and itching while taking this medication. Until I read the side effects I had no idea what was causing this. Meds will be stopped immediately.

Llevo alrededor de un ano bebiendo estas vitaminas pq tenia un agotamiento fisico muy fuerte. Mi doctor me receto estas vitaminas y me siento diferente con mucha energia. Cuando por descuido las dejo de consumir regresa el cansancio y los dolores de cabeza. Mi medico me dijo q ya no la estan haciendo pq los planes medicos no las quieren pagar. Como podre conseguirla aunque no las cubra el plan medico. Estoy dispuesta a pagar por ellas. Los calentones pre-menopausia han regresado bien fuertes necesito conseguir estas vitaminas. Por favor, como puedo conseguirlas.Read More Read Less

I have Celiac Disease and have absorption issues. I was perscribed Encora when I was going through infertility treatments. I took it for years, even after my son was born because I love how effective it is. I am so confident that it gives me the right vitamins at the right times. I am now pregnant again, and have discoverd is is discontinued. I am so disappounted!! I wanted to take it during this pregnancy since I have no doubt it contributed to the health of my son. Does anyone know whay it was discontinued or what I can take that is comparable?Read More Read Less

I am quite discouraged as I cannot find a pharmacy that can get Encora vitamins any longer. I am told by both CVS and Walgreens that these vitamins have been discontinued by the manufacturer. I would like an alternate comparable to Encora. I love the ease of use and the fact that they are made for women and women's needs. Any suggestions?

I was not getting enough calcuim in my diet or via over the counter vits. My Doc was using this product and suggested that I try it and gave me samples. So now not only am I getting enough Calcium but my hot flashes & night sweats have disipated as well(a bonus I am truly grateful for) I do not take any other prescriptions so encora gives me a base to determine what other supplements I might need. I;m very pleased with my experience with this product!
