Who supplies foscarnet in India?
Foscarnet (often sold under brand names internationally) is an anti-viral medicine used mainly for serious viral infections. In India, supply typically comes through Indian pharmaceutical distributors/importers rather than through many large domestic manufacturers, and availability can vary by hospital and prescription requirements.
If you’re looking for a specific supplier, the fastest way to verify current availability is to check:
- Hospital pharmacy procurement channels (they often source through licensed medical distributors)
- Licensed Indian import/distribution companies (for imported injectable medicines)
- Reputable online pharmacies that explicitly list the drug strength/formulation and show prescription-required ordering
What should you ask a supplier before ordering?
Because foscarnet is a prescription injectable medicine, suppliers will typically require documentation and should be able to provide:
- Exact strength and formulation (e.g., foscarnet sodium injection)
- Manufacturing country and batch/expiry details
- Temperature/shipping handling requirements (imported injectables may have strict cold-chain or stability requirements depending on packaging)
- Whether they can supply for institutional (hospital) use versus individual patients
