Local pharmacies face shortage of anti-depressant
MEDICINE HAT, AB — Medicine Hat pharmacists are being hit by a shortage of a specific type of anti-depressant, Wellbutrin.
The shortage of Wellbutrin XL 300mg was reported in Canada in early September and was resolved two weeks ago, but many pharmacies have yet to receive sufficient stock.
Of the ten pharmacies that CHAT News got in contact with, nine said they were short on the drug or completely out of stock.
