No other medication authorised in Canada shares this active ingredient.

Health Canada groups products by their active ingredients. No other marketed product shares this one’s group, which usually means it is still the only authorised version — not that alternatives were hidden or missed.

Important:

Information only — this is not medical advice. RxMonitor shows what Health Canada and provincial drug programs have published about authorised products. It does not tell you what to take, whether a medication is right for you, or what dose to use.

Always talk to a pharmacist or physician about your own medication, and never start, stop or change one based on what you read here.
