Monitored category — items publish only when newsworthy and sourced.

The shortage-and-supply category tracks official FDA drug-shortage status for GLP-1 products and its implications for compounding. Shortage status is a regulatory determination with dates; we distinguish it clearly from marketing claims about availability.

Category page indexable; items gated. An item appears here only with a primary source and an event date. We would rather show nothing than manufacture freshness.
