What is a Medicine on Shortage?
A medicine on shortage refers to a situation where the supply of a particular pharmaceutical product is insufficient to meet the demand. This can occur for various reasons, including:
Manufacturing issues such as production delays or quality control problems.
Supply chain disruptions, including difficulties in sourcing raw materials or transportation challenges.
Increased demand due to unexpected health crises or spikes in usage.
Regulatory or market changes that affect the availability of the product.
Medicine shortages can have serious implications for patient care, leading to treatment delays or forcing healthcare providers to use alternative treatments that may not be as effective.
At Unipharma, we specialize in addressing these shortages by leveraging our global supply network and expertise to ensure that healthcare providers have access to the medicines they need when they need them.
