Common questions
- Is Ibuprofen sodium in shortage right now?
- No. FDA does not currently list Ibuprofen sodium 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 Ibuprofen sodium?
- 3 companies have marketed Ibuprofen sodium in the last 30 days, according to the FDA NDC Directory. That is a thin market — if one stops making it, supply is at risk quickly. Every manufacturer and package is listed on this page.
