  • 1.  Generic Atripla

    Good Afternoon!

    We have been told by several retail pharmacies, that generic Atripla will no longer be made? When we look at the wholesaler our health system uses (McKesson), there are several different manufacturers available for purchase --- with only one of these being on allocation -- all of the others appear to be in ample supply. Just curious if anyone else has heard this or has additional information?

    Dr. Barnes;

    GIlead sent out a letter in late october advising that as of November 2021, they anticipated that the current supply of Atripla would be exhausted and they had notified the FDA that they were discontinuing manufacture of Atripla.

    We are aware that the brand is being d/c. However, what we were not aware of was discontinuation of the various generic manufactured products? Those supplies appear to be apple without allocation limit -- so, wanted to check here specifically about generic availability from other makers?
