My daughter gave me some of these pads and when I ran out I couldn’t find them anywhere in the local stores. I use them daily. I was so happy to find them online!

Why was the medicated version in the bottle discontinued? 🙁 it helped so much with redness from blemishes and helped them diminish in size. Will it ever come back?
Carolina @ Thayers –
Hi Audi,
Thank you for reaching out to us! We are constantly trying to innovate new and exciting products we think our consumers will enjoy and sometimes that means we have to make the difficult decision of discontinuing certain products, such as our Medicated Skin Irritation Relief. We apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused, and hope that you can still benefit from our Medicated Skin Irritation Relief Pads, which we will continue to carry.

So sad to learn Thayers discontinued the bottled medicated witch hazel. We’ve been using it for years. We live in Texas and it’s great for sun burns. Plus my husband uses it to clean his back.
Carolina @ Thayers –
Hi Cathy,
Thank you for reaching out to us! We understand how frustrating it can be when a product that has worked so well for you in the past is no longer available. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused, and hope you can still benefit from our Medicated Skin Irritation Relief Pads, which we will still continue to carry.
Leslie Cameron –
Why had the super medicated witch hazel been discontinued!? Buying pads soaked in it is not cost effective, as we have 3 of us in our family that use this product daily. Very disappointing as we have been using this for over 30 years as a facial cleaner and post shave astringent.
Carolina @ Thayers –
Hi Leslie,
Thanks for reaching out to us! As consumers ourselves, we understand how frustrating it can be to see a favorite product discontinued and we apologize for the inconvenience. It was a difficult decision to discontinue the Medicated Skin Irritation Relief, but we do hope you find relief in our Aftershave Lotion and see if it works for you as a post shave astringent. If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to us at info@thayers.com or contact 1-888-THAYER-1 (1-888-842-9371).

Love this. Love the formula and love the texture of the pads, it’s extra exfoliating.
Carolina @ Thayers –
Hi Georgia,
We are delighted to hear you are a fan of our Medicated Pads, thanks for taking time out of your busy day to leave a review!
Donald Creamer –
I agree with Leslie Cameron, that the pads are not a cost-effective substitute for the bottled Medicated Skin Irritation Relief product. If the decision to discontinue the bottled product was, as you say, “difficult”, and the product is now “missed by many”, under what circumstances will you reverse that decision and resume sales of this fine and unique product? Please advise.
Carolina @ Thayers –
Hi Donald,
We understand your frustration and we apologize for the inconvenience. At this time, we are not looking to bring back the Medicated Skin Irritation Relief, we do hope you find a more suitable option for your skincare concerns.
Garland –
I know only the pads are available for now and foreseeable future. That said, can you say why it was discontinued rather than just confirming it is? Thank you.
Carolina @ Thayers –
Hi Garland, thank you for reaching out. We are constantly trying to innovate new and exciting products we think our consumers will enjoy and sometimes that means we have to make the difficult decision of discontinuing certain products, such as our Medicated Skin Irritation Relief.

I developed the most miserable pruritic dermatology issue a few years ago and have been thru the mill! Have tried numerous prescribed things which were minimally helpful. Steroids help but have such bad S/E. The itching can be so bad as to wake me up from a sound sleep. Antihistamines provide minimal relief. Vinegar helps but also burns. Finally I met a mom of a child with the same issues. She told me about your medicated Witch Hazel. I was skeptical but this has given me the most relief. What a blessing! It also seemed to prevent me from getting a lesion infected (scratching). Did you know intense itching is dealt with medically as being as distressing as pain? I have shared your Medicated Thayers with others with bad dermatology issues and people are so grateful- this works!!! Many are children. Are you aware that finding a Dermatologist who is skilled at treating urticarial skin conditions is difficult and people travel to Mayo Clinic or Mayo in Miami? I live in a huge metro area and have been thru so many docs who don’t know what to do or prescribed something useless (Aquaphor) or triamcinolone… So when I went recently and could not find it anywhere ..then read you were not making this I cried. Please understand that this is not an issue of new and exciting things – then change out the rose scent or something. I wonder if this was not selling (but am finding this hard to believe because it’s like something that dermatology patients know about, are grateful for and it makes a medical difference! I think discontinuing this product is a profoundly disappointing decision because it helped people medically who really need it. I am begging you to please bring this back because it is a great help. If you weren’t selling enough I suggest you try marketing it to Dermatology practices. I am writing as a user and a RN. This isn’t just a cosmetic color but something that makes a medicinal difference to people. (PS Please know that some pts with bad dermatological itching are given thalidomide which helps but can also cause seizures! Dermatology issues are not cancer but they can truly affect one’s quality of life – that is why my appeal to you all is so heartfelt! Please, please bring this back or if you have any hidden somewhere give me a chance to purchase it!

Add me to the list in discontinuing the bottle. Used it right after shaving prior to a scented aftershave. Yes you have a shaving lotion, but cost per ounce is silly. More aftershaves have witch hazel and are natural based, so that is my alternative now. Very unfortunate as it has been in my cabinate for years and years. Should also mention used for bug bites and etc. Just like we the bottle suggested. You don’t throw away a foundation product to force consumers to new innovations. Short sighted.

This product is amazing! I use it daily and has healed all my scrapes. I pick on my face and unfortunately my skin does not heal like normal. This product helps clear up my skin fast! Within 2 days! Please continue to make this product, Thayers! It has helps me get my confidence back!

I’m not sure why you guys as a company would ignore so many complaints about dicontuining the bottle version of this. “Hard decision”. People buy from this brand just FOR THAT. Doesnt make sense to get rid of such a popular product .
Carolina @ Thayers –
Hi Kelsey, we do understand how disappointing and frustrating it may be when a product that has worked so well for you in the past is no longer available. We will be forwarding your comments along about the Medicated Skin Irritation Relief to the Thayers Team. We will continue to sell the Medicated Skin Irritation Pads, which contains the same formula as our Medicated Skin Irritation Relief with textured pads to go along with it. If you have additional questions or feedback for us feel free to contact us at info@thayers.com.
Danny Smith –
I’m rating the medicated witch hazel low due to the fact that the bottled product is discontinued. If you’re still producing it to sell using pads I see no reason why you can’t continue to sell it by the bottle. Please send all the request up to the person(s) who decided this was a good judgement call and bring the bottled product back.
Carolina @ Thayers –
Hi Danny,
Thank you for reaching out to us. We are constantly trying to innovate new and exciting products we think our consumers will enjoy and sometimes we have to make the difficult decision of discontinuing certain products, such as our Medicated Skin Irritation Relief. However, we will continue to carry the Medicated Skin Irritation Relief Pads, which might be of benefit to you. I hope this helps.
Katie Arterbury –
Add me to the list of angry long-time customers. Since you still make the medicated witch hazel, please consider selling it in the usual bottles or even in a bulk size. I’d gladly refill my old bottles. I’m not interested in your canned reply, I just want you to continue to take my money for the product I’ve been buying! When I run out of my current stock, I’ll be forced to switch brands altogether to try to find something comparable.
Carolina @ Thayers –
Hi Katie,
Thanks for reaching out to us.
