White Paper
Reporting of Medicine Shortages in Europe
Oct 01, 2020

- Reporting of Medicine Shortages in Europe
Addressing medicine shortages is a top priority in 2020 for the WHO, the EMA and the OECD. In this white paper, we analyse reported shortages in Q4 2019 (prior to COVID-19) across 11 representative European countries and provide new insight on the nature of shortages in Europe.
Key analyses include:
- Shortage reporting definition analysis
- Comparison of active shortages across 11 countries
- Molecules in shortage by number of countries
- Breakdown of shortages by protection status
- Number of molecules in shortage by company size
