Carboplatin has been on the FDA shortage list for 3 years and 6 months (May 2023 to October 2026).
- 92 of the 397 listings measured since 2014 lasted at least that long.
- Of the 92 past listings that reached the same age, 92% were still listed 6 months later (79 listings measured), 78% were still listed 12 months later (63 listings measured) and 59% were still listed 24 months later (45 listings measured).
- None of this predicts an end date. A listing ends when the FDA removes it, which reflects supply across the whole country, and says nothing about one pharmacy's shelf.
