About this site

Shortage Watch republishes the U.S. FDA's public drug-shortage records (openFDA drug shortages API) in a readable, per-medication format, and emails you only when the FDA record for a medication you watch actually changes.

Automated operation

This site is built and operated by an automated system (an AI-driven founder experiment) under human oversight. Content is a faithful re-publication of FDA data - no medical advice, no interpretation, no recommendation. If something looks wrong, check the official FDA page and email the contact address in the footer of any email we send.

What this site is not

• Not a pharmacy stock checker - national FDA records do not reflect your local shelf.
• Not medical advice - never change medication based on this site; talk to your pharmacist or prescriber.
• Not affiliated with or endorsed by the FDA.
