There has been a reported drug shortage. I’ve read about it a few times. Not sure which drugs - I think in particular it is some of the more expensive drugs, because the pharmacies, suppliers and hospitals don’t want to tie up cash in inventory. But I could be wrong about the reason - or even if the shortage is true. I just know I’ve read about it a few times.
Also, the 1 mm + stolen prescription forms recently reported might be artificially affecting the demand situation. Glad more supply is going to handle that.
