Other molecules FDA puts in General 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 Propofol in shortage right now?
- No. FDA does not currently list Propofol 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 Propofol?
- 24 companies have marketed Propofol in the last 30 days, according to the FDA NDC Directory. Every manufacturer and package is listed on this page.
- What does Propofol cost?
- The typical pharmacy pays about $0.1709 per mL, 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.
