What's happening
Perindopril Erbumine is currently affected by 6 active shortage reports filed with Health Canada by SERVIER CANADA INC, APOTEX INC, AURO PHARMA INC.
The reported causes are: delay in shipping of the drug; disruption of the manufacture 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.
Perindopril Erbumine is classified under “ACE INHIBITORS, PLAIN” (ATC C09AA).
