Wednesday assessing nation-wide shortages of critical medications, determining drug shortages to be a threat to national security.The report stated that “shortages continue to have devastating consequences for patients and health care providers, including medication errors and treatment delays, and in some cases, have led to doctors having to ration lifesaving treatments.” The report called on Congress and the pharmaceutical industry to “work together to respond to this decades-long problem.
”The report stated that drug shortages increased 30% from 2021 to 2022, with 295 drugs in short supply at one point in 2022. The report assessed potential causes of the shortages, determining that an overreliance on foreign imports of pharmaceutical ingredients from countries such as India and China paired with ongoing supply chain disruptions stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic have exacerbated the shortages.
