In reply to NARDIL USA Shortage - WTF - help!, posted by zonked on June 9, 2020, at 1:53:23

> For Americans: Pfizer (Greenstone is the generic - Identical), and Lupin (formerly Gavis Pharma/Novel Labs) are the licensed suppliers of Nardil/phenelzine in the United States. As soon as I wake up tomorrow, I am calling both to find out exactly what's going on.

> Internet searches have not been very productive - if anyone knows more information about this shortage, please reply here. I need this medicine, it is the ONLY thing that has ever worked for my depression. And I've tried virtually everything else. I certainly hope they are not discontinuing production. Does anyone know why there's a shortage?I am EXACTLY in the same position that you are.
*** I just called Pfizer ***
There is an interruption of the supply of Nardil in the US, but deliveries should resume in July, 2020.

Some see things as they are and ask why.
I dream of things that never were and ask why not.The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.
