The short version

12 companies supply this market — deep enough that no single failure threatens the supply.

What changed in the last 90 days

Every detected change for menthol, newest first — price moves, shortages, recalls, and manufacturers entering or leaving. Detected by comparing each day’s federal data against the day before.

Same drug class

Other molecules FDA puts in Amide Local Anesthetic, with whether each is in shortage right now. Same class is not the same drug — substitution is a clinical decision, and this is a supply picture, not a recommendation.

Common questions

Is Menthol in shortage right now?
No. FDA does not currently list Menthol in shortage. This page is rebuilt every morning from FDA's shortage database, so a new posting appears here the day it is published.
Who makes Menthol?
337 companies have marketed Menthol in the last 30 days, according to the FDA NDC Directory. Every manufacturer and package is listed on this page.
What does Menthol cost?
The typical pharmacy pays about $0.0450 per unit, based on the most recent CMS NADAC survey of actual acquisition costs. That is what the pharmacy pays for the drug itself — not the cash price, and not what an insurer is billed.
