ⓘ How this was built
- FDA NDC Directory (openFDA), read daily — package listings, marketing category, labeler
- DailyMed SPL establishment roles + name patterns → derived.labeler_kinds (repackager classification)
Marketed package NDCs are listings for this exact FDA generic-name string (and dosage form, when one is selected) that are in the current directory file and are finished products — bulk ingredients, export-only and further-processing listings are excluded and counted separately. Makers are distinct labeler names seen in the last 30 days minus classified repackagers/relabelers; a listing is not proof of shipping volume. To check: search the generic name in FDA's NDC Directory and count labelers.

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.
ⓘ How this was built
- FDA NDC Directory pharmacologic class (EPC) per product
- FDA drug shortages (openFDA)
- FDA NDC Directory labelers + derived.labeler_kinds
Peers share this drug's most common Established Pharmacologic Class. 'In shortage' means an FDA Current row whose NDC belongs to that molecule or whose listing name normalizes to it (any presentation). Maker counts are labelers active in the last 30 days minus repackagers, across all forms.

- CMS NADAC weekly file
Shortage: any Current FDA row whose package NDC belongs to this generic-name string or whose listing name normalizes to the same molecule; the presentations named are those rows. Makers: distinct labelers listing this string in the last 30 days, repackagers excluded. Cost: the median of each NDC's most recent NADAC within 6 months, restricted to the market's most common billing unit and to the generic cohort when one exists.

Finished products currently in the NDC Directory under this generic-name string (bulk, export-only and further-processing listings excluded). 'Widely marketed' marks the four form/strength/package combinations with the most NADAC-priced NDCs — a proxy for retail availability, not dispensing volume. Labeler counts in the tree include repackagers, marked in the roster on each drug page.
