No, NOROXIN (norfloxacin) is no longer available.
Understanding NOROXIN's Availability
NOROXIN (norfloxacin) tablets, 400 mg, has been discontinued by its manufacturer. This means that the drug is no longer produced or marketed for sale.
Here's a breakdown of its availability status:
- Manufacturer Notification: On October 13, 2015, the drug's manufacturer, Merck, formally notified the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that NOROXIN (norfloxacin) tablets, 400 mg, was being discontinued.
- FDA Listing: Following this notification, the FDA moved the drug product to the "Discontinued Drug Product List" section of its Orange Book, which is an official publication listing approved drug products.
This discontinuation means that pharmacies cannot order or stock new supplies of NOROXIN, making it unavailable to patients. If you were previously prescribed NOROXIN, your healthcare provider can discuss alternative treatments that are currently available.
