MYCAMINE 100 MG — DIN 02311054
MICAFUNGIN SODIUM : 100 MG · SANDOZ CANADA INCORPORATED · POWDER FOR SOLUTION · wholesale supply in Canada
Health Canada status: CANCELLED POST MARKET
What is MYCAMINE?
MYCAMINE 100 MG contains MICAFUNGIN SODIUM : 100 MG. It is listed in the Health Canada Drug Product Database under DIN 02311054, held by SANDOZ CANADA INCORPORATED, supplied as POWDER FOR SOLUTION for INTRAVENOUS administration. Health Canada currently lists it as cancelled post market, status dated 31-Jul-2026. This Drug Identification Number is no longer authorized for sale in Canada, so Nexara does not supply it. The record is kept here because buyers still meet the number on old formularies, purchase orders and tender documents; Nexara can help identify an authorized alternative.
What is MYCAMINE used for?
Treatment of Candidemia, Acute Disseminated Candidiasis, Candida Peritonitis and Abscesses; Esophageal candidiasis; Prophylaxis of Candida infections in HSCT recipients.
Authorized indication as written in the Health Canada product monograph. For healthcare professionals and licensed purchasers; this is not medical advice.
How much does Micafungin cost around the world?
Micafungin is listed on 8 of the national price registers Nexara ingests. Each country publishes on a different basis, so those figures are not comparable with one another — or with a Canadian wholesale price.
What a market publishes matters more than the number it publishes. Greece publishes a producer price (ex-factory); Hungary publishes a producer price (ex-factory); Iceland publishes a max wholesale. Comparing an ex-factory ceiling against a pharmacy public price tells you nothing about either, and comparing either against a Canadian landed cost tells you less.
| Market | Price basis published there | Brands | Packs listed | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Saudi Arabia | public | 8 | 12 | SAR███.██ |
| Greece | producer price (ex-factory) | 10 | 10 | EUR███.██ |
| Italy | ex-factory (classe H) | 4 | 6 | EUR███.██ |
| Romania | max producer price | 3 | 6 | RON███.██ |
| Iceland | max wholesale | 1 | 3 | ISK███.██ |
| United Kingdom | hospital | 2 | 2 | GBP███.██ |
| Hungary | producer price (ex-factory) | 2 | 2 | HUF███.██ |
| United Arab Emirates | public | 1 | 1 | AED███.██ |
42 pack listings across 31 brand entries and 6 price bases, refreshed 03 Sep 2026. Ranges span every Micafungin pack in that market, so a high figure is usually a larger pack rather than the same product.
This table is a regulatory record of where the molecule is listed. The DIN on this page is no longer authorized for sale in Canada, so Nexara does not quote it — see the alternatives above.
Is there a generic Micafungin 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.
5 holders have a Canadian DIN containing Micafungin, across 10 DINs, of which 6 are currently marketed. Marketed count is the number that matters: an approval that is not marketed cannot be bought.
| Market authorization holder | DINs | Marketed | Brand names | Position |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| HIKMA CANADA LIMITED | 2 | 2 | MICAFUNGIN SODIUM FOR INJECTION | Sourceable in Canada |
| JUNO PHARMACEUTICALS CORP. | 2 | 2 | MICAFUNGIN SODIUM FOR INJECTION | Sourceable in Canada |
| OMEGA LABORATORIES LIMITED | 2 | 2 | MICAFUNGIN SODIUM FOR INJECTION | Sourceable in Canada |
| ACCORD HEALTHCARE INC | 2 | 0 | MICAFUNGIN FOR INJECTION | No marketed DIN |
| SANDOZ CANADA INCORPORATED | 2 | 0 | MYCAMINE | No marketed DIN |
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.
| Strength on the label | 100 MG |
|---|---|
| Dosage form | POWDER FOR SOLUTION |
| Route | INTRAVENOUS |
| Pack configuration (monograph) | 50 mg and 100 mg single-use vials. |
| Storage | Store at 15-30°C. (Note: Summary Product Information table lists storage in general terms; specific room temperature range is standard). |
Pack detail is kept as a regulatory record. This DIN is no longer authorized for sale in Canada, so Nexara does not quote this pack.

Health Canada record and identifiers
The regulatory facts straight from the Drug Product Database, plus every identifier form Nexara accepts on a purchase order. A DIN written without its leading zeros is the commonest reason an order line fails to match.

How is it administered?
Administer by slow IV infusion over 1 hour. Adults: 50-150 mg/day depending on indication. Pediatrics (≥4 months): 1-2 mg/kg/day (max 100-150 mg/day). Do not mix with other medications.
Included because it drives pack selection and wastage. Consult the monograph.
Contraindications
Hypersensitivity to micafungin, other echinocandins, or any component of the formulation.
Warnings and precautions
Serious hypersensitivity (anaphylaxis), Stevens-Johnson syndrome, and TEN reported. Potential risk of liver tumors (based on rat studies). Monitor hepatic, renal, and hematological (hemolysis) function.
Is Micafungin in shortage in Canada?
A Canadian shortage report is on file for a product containing this molecule: Resolved — reported by OMEGA LABORATORIES LIMITED, last seen 10 Aug 2026. A shortage on one presentation does not always affect every DIN of the molecule — the alternatives below list what else is marketed in Canada. Nexara can confirm current availability and identify substitutions or import options where permitted.
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.

2 · Same class — other molecules in ATC J02AX
| Molecule | Canadian brands | DINs | Marketed | Sourceable |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Micafungin | MICAFUNGIN FOR INJECTION · MICAFUNGIN SODIUM FOR INJECTION · MYCAMINE | 10 | 6 | Yes |

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.
3 · Adjacent classes in ATC J02A

| J02AB | Ketoconazole | 5 | 2 |
Not clinical advice. These tables describe what can be supplied in Canada, not what should be prescribed. Substitution within or across classes is a prescriber and pharmacist decision, and interchangeability is determined provincially.
What else is MYCAMINE called?
The same molecule, Micafungin, 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:
| Name | Script | Registered in |
|---|---|---|
| Maikoda | Latin | Saudi Arabia |
| Megmento | Latin | Saudi Arabia |
| Micafungin QO | Latin | Saudi Arabia |
| Echinobat | Latin | Saudi Arabia |
| Ezokamine | Latin | Saudi Arabia |
| Micafungin Biocon | Latin | Saudi Arabia |
| Micanda | Latin | Saudi Arabia |
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.
Can this still be bought in Canada?
No. This Drug Identification Number is cancelled post market in Health Canada's Drug Product Database, so the product is no longer authorized for sale in Canada and Nexara does not supply it. This page is kept as a regulatory record.

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.
