What this means

Does this mean my pharmacy is out of stock?

Not necessarily — a national shortage doesn't mean every pharmacy has run out. Some locations may still have stock, especially of a specific strength or pack size.

What should I do?

Health Canada classes this as a Tier 3 shortage, its highest-impact category. If you rely on this medication, talk to your pharmacist or care team now rather than waiting for your supply to run low. This product is usually given in a hospital or clinic, where the pharmacy team manages supply. If you're scheduled to receive it, ask your care team.
