PROCHLORPERAZINE : 10 MG · ODAN LABORATORIES LTD · SUPPOSITORY · wholesale supply in Canada

Health Canada status: MARKETED

What is ODAN-PROCHLORPERAZINE?

ODAN-PROCHLORPERAZINE 10 MG contains PROCHLORPERAZINE : 10 MG. It is listed in the Health Canada Drug Product Database under DIN 00789720, held by ODAN LABORATORIES LTD, supplied as SUPPOSITORY for RECTAL administration. Health Canada currently lists it as marketed, status dated 18-Nov-2024. Nexara Health is a licensed Canadian wholesale distributor (DEL 3-002896-A) and can source this product for hospitals, pharmacies and clinics. Availability and lead time are confirmed per order.

What is ODAN-PROCHLORPERAZINE used for?

In the management of manifestations of psychotic disorders such as agitation, confusion, delusion, tension and anxiety. Prochlorperazine is also effective in controlling nausea and vomiting due to stimulation of the chemoreceptor trigger zone (CTZ). In selected patients, prochlorperazine may be of value for the relief of excessive anxiety, accompanied by severe tension and agitation, associated with psychoneurotic or somatic conditions.

Authorized indication as written in the Health Canada product monograph. For healthcare professionals and licensed purchasers; this is not medical advice.

Is there a generic Prochlorperazine in Canada, and who makes it?

Every market authorization holder with a Canadian DIN for this molecule, and how many of their listings Health Canada currently shows as marketed.

7 holders have a Canadian DIN containing Prochlorperazine, across 15 DINs, of which 3 are currently marketed. Marketed count is the number that matters: an approval that is not marketed cannot be bought.

Health Canada’s Drug Product Database does not flag which listing is the originator and which are subsequent-entry products, so Nexara does not label them here. Interchangeability is determined provincially, not federally — confirm for your province before a formulary switch. Nexara can confirm which of these is actually obtainable, and on what lead time, per order.

How is it supplied and stored?

Pack configuration, storage class and the handling constraints that drive cold-chain planning. One DIN can cover more than one pack size, and the pack — not the DIN — is what gets priced, shipped and invoiced.

Health Canada record and identifiers

How is it administered?

Adults: 1 suppository 1-3 times daily for nausea/anxiety. Psychiatry: Start 10 mg 3-4 times daily, adjust gradually. Use lowest effective dose for maintenance.

Included because it drives pack selection and wastage. Consult the monograph.

Contraindications

Circulatory collapse, comatose states, drug intoxication, blood dyscrasias, liver disease, renal insufficiency, pheochromocytoma, severe cardiovascular disorders, subcortical brain damage.

Warnings and precautions

May mask signs of drug overdose or brain tumors. Risk of Neutropenia/Agranulocytosis (monitor CBC). May impair mental/physical abilities for driving. Risk of Venous Thromboembolism.

What can be used instead?

Alternatives on every axis a buyer actually considers — the same molecule in another presentation, the same class, an adjacent class, or a fixed-dose combination. Every row is led by the marketed DIN count, because that is what can be bought this week.

A molecule with zero marketed DINs cannot be sourced domestically, however many approvals it holds — if one of these sits on a formulary or in an older protocol, that is the line to check.

What else is ODAN-PROCHLORPERAZINE called?

The same molecule, Prochlorperazine, is registered under other names elsewhere. Buyers and prescribers searching from outside Canada — or working from a foreign prescription or tender document — often know it by one of these:

Names are taken from national medicine registers and published price lists. A product registered abroad is not authorized for sale in Canada unless it holds its own DIN; import is possible only through the routes Health Canada permits.

What is Prochlorperazine called in other languages?

Buyers, prescribers and procurement teams outside Canada often search for the ingredient in their own script. These are phonetic renderings of the ingredient name Prochlorperazine, published to help those searches reach this page.

Ordering questions

Who can buy this from Nexara?

Licensed entities only. Nexara holds Health Canada establishment licence DEL 3-002896-A and ships only to a licensed address. Patients and unlicensed buyers are routed to a partner pharmacy.

Is there a minimum order?

Yes, set per product line and per pack multiple rather than on the order total, so you are never asked to buy a part-pack. The minimum for this line is confirmed with your quote.

What is the lead time?

Confirmed per order at quotation, and it depends on current stock position and whether the product is in shortage.

Why is there no price on this page?

Nexara quotes a delivered Canadian price per order, against a verified licence. Foreign list prices are published on incompatible bases and are not a guide to what any buyer can obtain here, so this page shows which markets list the molecule and on what basis, and nothing more.

Can Nexara supply this for a clinical trial?

Yes — comparator and background-therapy supply, including sourcing from other markets where a Canadian pack will not satisfy the protocol. Clinical trial supply.
