The furthest expected-resolution date currently on file is 2028-01-03; the earliest is 2026-10-14. Notably, 1 report has already passed the expected-resolution date without closing — prognoses for this medicine should be read as estimates, not commitments. The issue spread across registers over time rather than at once: Ireland reported first (2025-01-08), with Austria following roughly 15 months later — a pattern typical of supply problems cascading between national markets. Registers in Germany, Spain, Ireland indicate that alternatives or equivalents are available — a pharmacist or doctor can advise on switching.
