Description
Methadone 5mg tablets are out of stock until late May 2024. Supplies will continue to be available in secondary care to meet historic demand only throughout this period. However, the supplies of Methadone 5mg tablets allocated to secondary care are unable to support demand from primary care providers. Methadone 1mg/ml oral solution (with/without sugar) remains available and can support increased demand to meet primary care demand. Unlicensed imports of methadone 5mg tablets may be sourced, lead times vary.
