ICG Product Shortage & Notice of Allocation
Indocyanine Green for Injection USP, 25 mg / Vial, Kit of 5 & 6 packs
We are currently working with our distribution partners to manage pending shortages of ICG. In late June, we initiated an allocation process for all of our distribution partners. This process has been set up and is being administered in a fair and equitable fashion.
Diagnostic Green/Renew Pharmaceuticals, the manufacturer of record is working diligently to alleviate shortages including working with regulatory authorities to support bringing a new manufacturing facility on-line by the end of the year. This action, along with an aggressive recovery action plan with our current manufacturer will ensure that this shortage situation will be remedied by the end of the year.
