Medicine shortages

metoclopramide hydrochloride monohydrate

Shortage expected

The supplier has told the TGA it expects this medicine to go into shortage. It has not necessarily done so yet. Your pharmacist can tell you what is in stock now.

The TGA has assessed this shortage as medium impact, meaning some people may need to change brand, strength or product while it lasts.

1 product record on the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods, listed in full below. The TGA last updated this information on 25 June 2026. 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.

Where this comes from

Source: Medicine Shortage Reports Database, Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), © Commonwealth of Australia, reproduced with permission. The TGA does not endorse Voxsanity, and nothing here is presented as a TGA view. Shortage information is free for everyone on this site, with no account and no subscription.

Every product listed above links to the TGA's own shortage record for that product. The TGA's register is organised by product rather than by medicine, so there is no single TGA page covering metoclopramide hydrochloride monohydrate as a whole; to see them together, open the TGA Medicine Shortage Reports Database and type metoclopramide hydrochloride monohydrate into its filter box. General information about medicine shortages is on the TGA's medicine shortages page.
