💊 Medochemie Limited becomes sole EU supplier of Praziquantel 600mg tablets amid shortages

Medochemie Limited (Cyprus) is now the only EU supplier with an EU Marketing Authorisation providing Praziquantel 600mg tablets, responding to severe shortages caused by the original manufacturer ceasing production. The discontinuation has resulted in a gradual pan-European shortage of this essential drug.

Medochemie has already dispatched its first shipment to Greece to meet patient needs into 2026, with plans to distribute more across other EU member states as import permits are arranged. Praziquantel is a first-line treatment for trematode infections, including schistosomiasis, liver flukes, and lung flukes.

Praziquantel is recognized on the 2025 WHO Essential Medicines List and plays a vital role in mass drug administration programs globally. Medochemie’s manufacturing and supply efforts aim to support healthcare practitioners throughout the EU in managing these parasitic infections amid limited drug availability.
