One forecast, used from both sides of the order.

For pharmacies and hospitals

Order with the forecast in front of you.

  • Every pack shows its chance of going short over the next 30 to 365 days.
  • Order quantities are suggested from that forecast and your monthly usage.
  • When a pack is short, same-substance alternatives in stock are one click away.
  • One basket across sellers, with bulk entry by AIC code.

For wholesalers and distributors

Stock and price where supply is tightening.

  • See which medicines are short now or forecast to run short.
  • Price every strength and pack size against the market average.
  • Accept, ship and track orders in one inbox.
  • List registered packs, or add a pack size the register lacks.

How the forecast is built

Shortage lists say what is short today. Pharmendium estimates what will be short next, and for how long.

    AIFA's daily shortage list, its 2018-2025 archive and the national register of authorized packs.

  2. 2

    Add context

    Excipients each medicine depends on, FDA shortage reasons and supply news from GDELT and Firecrawl.

  3. 3

    Forecast

    A tabular foundation model (TabICLv2) predicts, horizon by horizon, whether a shortage will still be running, learning from every past episode including the ones still open, with seasonality from past years.

  4. 4

    Act

    Buyers order ahead of shortages. Sellers stock and price where demand is about to rise.
