The FDA just posted a Levothyroxine shortage notice on their site. The company's blaming the shortage on manufacturing delays. Bedford hopes to have the 500mg vial by early January.
The full report is on the FDA site:

Bedford is the only one with the Levothyroxine vials and since this is a grandfathered drug, there is issues on it. According to Bedford, if they pull the druf of the market, there will no one supplying the market. I am not sure that FDA has given them the green light to keep it on.
Our supervisor asked us not to use medication pending FDA's decision. What is everyone else doing?
