Discontinued means that they are no longer making the product.  I checked the Systane website, and it is not listed as one of their products. 

There are many other products for sale.  These are all on Amazon:

Bio Tears Oral Gel Caps for Dry Eye
Thera Tears Nutrition, 1200mg Omega-3 Supplement Capsules
