Drug Report History

Return to report

Below you will find the report version history. When a report is updated, a new version of the report is created. The report history allows you to see the changes between versions. You can select two versions of the report to compare. The fields that were changed between versions will be highlighted in yellow.

The translation of reports creates two separate versions which is why some reports may not seem to have any differences. In this case, only the language field below will be highlighted in yellow.

Company comments Fresenius Kabi Canada regrets to advise that due to a production delay, we will be encountering a supply interruption on our Milrinone Lactate Injection 1 mg/mL SD Vial 10 mL effective November 1, 2021 until November 18, 2021. Once product is released, it will be removed from allocation. Our Milrinone Lactate Injection 1 mg/mL SD Vial 20 mL will be available for substitution. Allocations will be increased to cover 100% of the 20mL demand plus 100% of the 10mL demand based on a 1:2 conversion ratio. For example, 1 vial of 20mL = 2 vials of 10mL.
