Common questions

Is Guanfacine hydrochloride in shortage right now?
No. FDA does not currently list Guanfacine hydrochloride 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 Guanfacine hydrochloride?
13 companies have marketed Guanfacine hydrochloride in the last 30 days, according to the FDA NDC Directory. Every manufacturer and package is listed on this page.
What does Guanfacine hydrochloride cost?
The typical pharmacy pays about $0.1442 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.
