Propranolol Hydrochloride has been on the FDA shortage list for 3 years (November 2023 to October 2026).
- 111 of the 397 listings measured since 2014 lasted at least that long.
- Of the 111 past listings that reached the same age, 92% were still listed 6 months later (92 listings measured), 84% were still listed 12 months later (79 listings measured) and 65% were still listed 24 months later (52 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.
