Key facts

As of 14 September 2026, 5 of the 9 tracked registers list current availability issues for Oxaliplatin, covering 7 affected product presentations. The longest-running open report was filed in Spain on 2026-01-07 and has now been open for about 8 months. Where agencies state a cause, delivery delays lead with 2 of the 3 stated-cause reports, followed by manufacturing problems with 1. The furthest expected-resolution date currently on file is 2026-12-31; the earliest is 2026-10-12. Notably, 2 reports have already passed the expected-resolution date without closing — prognoses for this medicine should be read as estimates, not commitments. Momentum is current, not historical: 4 of the open reports were filed within the last 90 days. The issue spread across registers over time rather than at once: Spain reported first (2026-01-07), with Greece following roughly 6 months later — a pattern typical of supply problems cascading between national markets. Registers in Spain, Greece, Ireland, Sweden indicate that alternatives or equivalents are available — a pharmacist or doctor can advise on switching. In the WHO ATC classification, Oxaliplatin is coded L01XA03 — a medicine acting on antineoplastic and immunomodulating agents — so clinically related products appear under “Related medicines” below.
