Anticipated drug shortages in Canada

39 drugs

An anticipated shortage means a manufacturer expects supply to fall short of demand but it has not happened yet. Many are averted entirely, so this list is an early-warning signal rather than a reason to act; it becomes relevant if your drug also appears on the active list later. Each page updates automatically the moment a report's status changes.
