Re: Drug Shortages and the manufactures

Oh, NO!!! You're NOT alone. I've been telling the reps for years not to come to me with a new drug until they can provide all the ones we've been wait for. We keep thinking "it has to get better", but it only seems to get worse.

Re: Drug Shortages and the manufactures

If Mr. Millen was an NPPA Member or Conference Attendee, he’d know by now that he’s not alone in his feelings on this issue and others that Buyers face in their jobs day in & out. In addition, we now have a regular monthly news column in NPPA’s official publication, Pharmacy Purchasing Outlook, that gives updates on new product approvals from the FDA’s Shortage List, and general news about legislation and updates on the Drug Shortage Crisis.
