Diprivan

Our Commitment Goes On And On

Dear Healthcare Professional,

As a responsive leader, APP Pharmaceuticals, a company of the Fresenius Kabi Group is pleased to announce that APP Diprivan® and APP Propofol are now readily available at wholesalers and distributors nationwide.

Responsiveness is our commitment to clinicians and APP Pharmaceuticals has worked hard to ensure the abundant supply of this critically needed drug.  As soon as APP learned of the propofol shortage from the FDA Drug Shortage office, we acted decisively to increase supplies to the U.S. market. 

  • APP increased production of the branded product, Diprivan®, and our authorized generic Propofol by 127%
  • APP expedited distribution with continual air freight shipments into the U.S. to support increased demand

APP is a leading supplier of injectable drugs to U.S. hospitals and clinics.  We specialize in this area, and we understand how vital it is for clinicians and patients that supplies of critical drugs are not interrupted.

Nearly two years ago, the propofol drug shortage began as two other manufacturers issued voluntary recalls.  Today, while the healthcare industry is plagued with an unprecedented number of drug shortages, APP Pharmaceuticals is proud to have played a significant role in resolving this critical shortage.

All APP Diprivan® and APP Propofol presentations are now readily available.  Please check with your wholesalers and distribution centers for available inventory.
