Discontinued
The supplier has told the TGA it is permanently stopping supply of this product in Australia. This is not a temporary shortage. Other brands or strengths of the same medicine may still be available, and your doctor or pharmacist can advise on what to do next.
1 product record on the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods, listed in full below. The TGA last updated this information on 21 November 2025. Not medical advice.
The TGA does not publish a reason for a shortage, so Voxsanity cannot show one. Nothing on this page is an explanation of why supply is affected — that information is not in the source and is not inferred here.
This is national information. The TGA records shortages for Australia as a whole. There is no state, territory or pharmacy-level stock information in this data, and Voxsanity cannot tell you whether a particular pharmacy has a medicine in stock. Your pharmacist can.
