Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether her Department has had recent discussions with suppliers of One Alpha on the procurement of that product for people with hypoparathyroidism.
This question was answered on 1st November 2022
There have been no specific discussions. We are aware of a shortage of the one microgram capsules due to manufacturing delays, which is expected to be resolved in November 2022. There are two alternative suppliers of alfacalcidol one microgram capsules which remain in stock with no anticipated supply issues.
