Melafix is also made by a company called API (very large company). If the pet stores carry other API products they may be able to get melafix.

maybe. Is it spelled "primafix" with the "r" or "pimafix" without the "r"?

If they have "pimafix" they should be able to get "melafix". It is always good to have both just in case :)
