These rows are manufacturer reports to the FDA for Nebivolol Hydrochloride Tablet — they do not necessarily cover every manufacturer that makes this drug. A company appears here only if it told the FDA it has a supply problem, so other makers may still have stock. That’s the basis for the Where else can I get Nebivolol Hydrochloride Tablet? options further down this page.

Why is Nebivolol Hydrochloride Tablet in shortage?

Torrent Pharmaceuticals has decided to permanently stop making their version of nebivolol hydrochloride tablets. This affects all four strengths they made — the 2.5 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg, and 20 mg tablets — across all of their package sizes. They did not share a specific public reason for why they made this decision.

It's worth knowing that this applies only to Torrent's products. Because this is a permanent stop rather than a temporary supply hiccup, there is no expected recovery date for Torrent's nebivolol tablets.

Based on the manufacturer-reported reason(s) and notes on file with the FDA for Nebivolol Hydrochloride Tablet, summarized in plain English by HelloPharmacist. A drug can be short for more than one reason, and the FDA updates these as manufacturers report changes.

What should I do if I take Nebivolol Hydrochloride Tablet?

Nebivolol hydrochloride tablets are currently on the FDA shortage list. This medicine is used to help control blood pressure, and I want to walk you through what this report means so you can plan ahead.

The report comes from one manufacturer, Torrent Pharmaceuticals, and it lists all four strengths — 2.5 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg, and 20 mg — as having no available source from that company. The reason given is that this maker is discontinuing production. Because this is a discontinuation rather than a temporary delay, this particular supply may not return. That said, this report reflects only one manufacturer, and other companies make the same medicine.

Here is what I suggest, in order:

  1. Do not stop, skip, or change your dose on your own — steady blood pressure control matters.
  2. Ask your pharmacy to check wholesalers and other makers. The same medicine (nebivolol, including the brand Bystolic) is still made by companies such as Allergan, Major Pharmaceuticals, Apnar Pharma, and Unichem, though it may not be in local stock right away.
  3. If your strength cannot be found, ask your prescriber or pharmacist about a suitable option.

Manufacturer contact numbers are listed on this page for reference; your pharmacy usually handles those calls. This is general national data and may not match your pharmacy's actual stock.

See “Where else can I get Nebivolol Hydrochloride Tablet?” below ↓ The same medicine from manufacturers not reporting a shortage, alternative dosage forms, and therapeutic equivalents with pricing.
If you are a patient:
  • Don’t stop or change the medication on your own — talk to your prescriber first.
  • If this is part of an ongoing or essential regimen (for example HIV treatment or prevention, seizure, heart, transplant, diabetes or mental-health medicines), do not skip or ration doses — contact your pharmacist or prescriber right away to arrange continued supply before you run out.
  • Ask your pharmacy to check other manufacturers, strengths, package sizes, and nearby stores.
  • Ask your prescriber whether a different strength, formulation, or the brand/generic version is appropriate.

Where else can I get Nebivolol Hydrochloride Tablet?

FDA shortages are manufacturer-reported — a company only shows up on the shortage list if it told the FDA it has a supply problem, so not every maker of Nebivolol Hydrochloride Tablet is necessarily short. Below we pull together the other still-marketed options that are not reported in shortage: the same medicine from manufacturers that haven’t reported a problem, and alternative dosage forms. These may still be out of stock at your pharmacy, and only your prescriber or pharmacist can decide what’s right for you.

Same medicine, other manufacturers (not reported short)

Same active ingredient, dosage form & route as the shortage (matched on the FDB HICL ingredient code), from makers that have not filed a shortage with the FDA:

Equivalents share the same ingredient, strength, dosage form and route; an AB rating means the FDA considers them substitutable. NADAC is a national retail-pharmacy acquisition benchmark from CMS — not what you pay. Availability is inferred from recent pricing, not a stock check.

Nebivolol Hydrochloride Tablet shortage FAQs

Is Nebivolol Hydrochloride Tablet in shortage?
Yes — the FDA currently lists Nebivolol Hydrochloride Tablet in shortage (status: “To Be Discontinued”, first reported Mar 25, 2026). 16 of 16 products are affected. This is national, manufacturer-reported data, so your pharmacy may still have stock.

The full per-NDC list (availability, manufacturer and status) is in the table above — each NDC links to its own page.
When will Nebivolol Hydrochloride Tablet be available again?
The FDA does not publish a guaranteed restock date, and no estimated-recovery note is on file. Availability can change daily — confirm with your pharmacy.
Can I still get Nebivolol Hydrochloride somewhere?

How to read the Supply-Risk rating
Low (1–2)Multiple manufacturers still supplying and most strengths or pack sizes sourceable.
Medium (3)Some constraint — fewer suppliers or a notable share of NDCs unavailable.
High (4–5)Down to a single source, most strengths or pack sizes unsourceable, or a long-running outage.
Where does this data come from?
Shortage records come from the FDA Drug Shortages Database API via openFDA (/drug/shortages) — drug, manufacturer & contact, NDC/product, status, availability, reason, therapeutic category and posting/update dates. Current / To Be Discontinued = active; Resolved is kept for history. The Supply-Risk rating is assessed per active ingredient and adds the FDA NDC Directory (still-marketed manufacturers by ingredient & form); same-medicine and equivalent products use First Databank classification + CMS NADAC pricing; Medicaid use + most-affected states come from CMS Medicaid State Drug Utilization Data. Reference only — confirm current status with the manufacturer or FDA before acting on it.
