Drug shortages

FDA-reported shortages — each row is one company's version of a drug, so several rows for the same drug means several manufacturers are affected · refreshed daily. Type in the filter box to search this list, or click a column to sort.

ⓘ How this was built
Data sources
  • FDA drug shortages via openFDA (refreshed daily)
  • Internet Archive snapshots of FDA's shortage CSV, Oct 2019-present (duration statistics)
Method

Rows are FDA's company-level shortage records upserted daily. Duration stats are Kaplan-Meier estimates over reconstructed historical episodes; still-open shortages count as censored so long ones aren't ignored.

Pipeline and calculations built by Claude (Fable 5) from the public datasets above. Educational only — verify against primary sources before acting.

How long do shortages last?

injectables: 20 months (middle half 1237)oral solids: 14 months (middle half 1031)others: 12 months (middle half 1026)

Median time from first FDA posting to resolution — Kaplan–Meier estimates over 7,013 company-level shortage episodes posted since Oct 2019, reconstructed from Internet Archive snapshots of FDA's shortage database. Still-open shortages count as censored, so long-running ones aren't ignored.
