What's happening

Ivabradine is currently affected by 2 active shortage reports filed with Health Canada by SERVIER CANADA INC.

The reported cause is: delay in shipping of the drug. Manufacturers must report shortages, but end-date estimates are their own projections and often move.

If your usual product is affected, a pharmacist is the fastest route to a solution: they can dispense an unaffected manufacturer's equivalent when one exists, and in most provinces can adapt doses or substitute a therapeutic alternative without a new appointment.

Ivabradine is classified under “OTHER CARDIAC PREPARATIONS” (ATC C01EB).
