Is The Generic Of Soma Compound With Codeine Discontinued?

I have been taking the generic of soma compound with codeine. My pharmacy says this has been discontinued. How do I find out if this is true? I have run into pharmacists before who have never heard of this drug or tried to give me the wrong thing, so I don t have high confidence that they know what they are talking about.
