Drug Shortage Crisis Hits Taiwan: Nationwide Shortage of IV Fluids and Medication

Reported 8 months ago

Taiwan is currently facing a drug shortage crisis, with clinics crowded with patients, including many COVID-19 cases, and concerns rising among doctors due to a severe shortage of antiviral medications across the country. Pharmacists on the front lines have also revealed shortages of antibiotics like amoxicillin and are calling for the establishment of a dedicated drug shortage office to handle the issue. The reliance on imported raw materials for pharmaceuticals, especially from China, poses a significant risk to the local drug supply in Taiwan.
