Shortage ATC B01AF01 · also listed as: RIVAROXABAN · data refreshed 7 August 2026
As of 7 August 2026, 5 of the 10 tracked registers list current availability issues for Rivaroxaban, covering 11 affected product presentations. The longest-running open report was filed in Italy on 2024-12-27 and has now been open for about 20 months. Where agencies state a cause, manufacturing problems lead with 2 of the 3 stated-cause reports, followed by unexpectedly high demand with 1. The furthest expected-resolution date currently on file is 2026-12-31; the earliest is 2026-09-29. Notably, 1 report has already passed the expected-resolution date without closing — prognoses for this medicine should be read as estimates, not commitments. Momentum is current, not historical: 8 of the open reports were filed within the last 90 days. The issue spread across registers over time rather than at once: Italy reported first (2024-12-27), with Germany following roughly 18 months later — a pattern typical of supply problems cascading between national markets. Registers in Germany, Spain, Italy, Sweden indicate that alternatives or equivalents are available — a pharmacist or doctor can advise on switching. In the WHO ATC classification, Rivaroxaban is coded B01AF01 — a medicine acting on blood and blood-forming organs — so clinically related products appear under “Related medicines” below.

Agency prognoses on file range from 2026-09-29 to 2026-12-31. These are manufacturer-reported estimates and frequently move; check the linked register entry for the latest date.
6 of the active register entries indicate alternatives or equivalents (same active substance or an alternative treatment). Do not switch on your own — a pharmacist or prescriber can confirm the right substitute in your country.
Directly from the official medicines-agency registers that list Rivaroxaban: BASG (Austria), BfArM (Germany), AEMPS CIMA (Spain), ANSM (France), AIFA (Italy), Läkemedelsverket (Sweden). Every row on this page links to the underlying official record, and the dataset is refreshed from the primary sources every morning. Cross-language matching groups the same active substance across registers, so national spellings all resolve to this page.
