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?

Contact your pharmacy before your current supply runs low, and ask your pharmacist about next steps if they're out.

Have you checked a pharmacy recently?

Community reports are not verified by a pharmacy and may reflect a small sample size. This is not a guarantee of current stock.
