NGENLA 20 MG — DIN 02521679
SOMATROGON : 20 MG · PFIZER CANADA ULC · SOLUTION · wholesale supply in Canada
Health Canada status: MARKETED
What is NGENLA?
NGENLA 20 MG contains SOMATROGON : 20 MG. It is listed in the Health Canada Drug Product Database under DIN 02521679, held by PFIZER CANADA ULC, supplied as SOLUTION for SUBCUTANEOUS administration. Health Canada currently lists it as marketed, status dated 22-Feb-2022. 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 NGENLA used for?
NGENLA (somatrogon) is indicated for the long-term treatment of pediatric patients who have growth failure due to an inadequate secretion of endogenous growth hormone (growth hormone deficiency).
Authorized indication as written in the Health Canada product monograph. For healthcare professionals and licensed purchasers; this is not medical advice.
How much does Somatrogon cost around the world?
Somatrogon is listed on 10 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. Australia publishes a ex-manufacturer; Bahrain publishes a retail (max); Czechia publishes a max producer price (ex-factory). 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Australia | ex-manufacturer | 1 | 4 | AUD███.██ |
| United Arab Emirates | public | 2 | 2 | AED███.██ |
| Bahrain | retail (max) | 1 | 2 | BHD███.██ |
| Czechia | max producer price (ex-factory) | 1 | 2 | CZK███.██ |
| Greece | producer price (ex-factory) | 2 | 2 | EUR███.██ |
| Italy | prezzo al pubblico (classe A) | 2 | 2 | EUR███.██ |
| Luxembourg | reimbursement | 2 | 2 | EUR███.██ |
| Romania | max producer price | 2 | 2 | RON███.██ |
| Saudi Arabia | public | 1 | 2 | SAR███.██ |
| Slovakia | categorised final price | 2 | 2 | EUR███.██ |
22 pack listings across 16 brand entries and 9 price bases, refreshed 08 Sep 2026. Ranges span every Somatrogon pack in that market, so a high figure is usually a larger pack rather than the same product.
Canada publishes no comparable public list price. For a delivered Canadian price on a licensed account, verify your licence — it takes about a minute.
Is there a generic Somatrogon 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.
Only one market authorization holder has a Canadian DIN containing Somatrogon — 2 DINs, of which 2 are currently marketed. There is no second Canadian source today, so a supply interruption on this holder has no domestic substitute at the same molecule.
| Market authorization holder | DINs | Marketed | Brand names | Position |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PFIZER CANADA ULC | 2 | 2 | NGENLA | Sourceable in Canada |
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 | 20 MG |
|---|---|
| Dosage form | SOLUTION |
| Route | SUBCUTANEOUS |
| Pack configuration (monograph) | 24 mg Pre-filled Pen, 60 mg Pre-filled Pen. Each carton contains one single-patient-use, disposable pre-filled pen. The 24 mg pen has a somatrogon solution concentration of 20 mg/mL and a volume of 1.2 mL. The 60 mg pen has a somatrogon solution concentration of 50 mg/mL and a volume of 1.2 mL. |
| Storage | The pre-filled pen may be used straight from the refrigerator. For a more comfortable injection, allow up to 30 minutes for the pre-filled pen to reach room temperature (20° to 25°C). |
| Shipping class | Cold chain — validated shipper with temperature monitoring |
Before an order line is unambiguous Nexara needs the strength, the pack size and the presentation.
Cold chain. This product is stored refrigerated. Nexara ships it on a validated cold chain with temperature monitoring; a delivery address that cannot receive and store it at 2–8 °C on arrival must be flagged before the order is placed.

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.

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.
1 · Same molecule, other Canadian presentations
2 of 2 Canadian DINs for this molecule are currently marketed. Marketed products are listed first.
| Product | Strength | Form | Holder | Health Canada status | DIN |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| NGENLA | 50 MG | SOLUTION | PFIZER CANADA ULC | MARKETED | 02521687 |
2 · Same class — other molecules in ATC H01AC
| Molecule | Canadian brands | DINs | Marketed | Sourceable |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Somatropin | BIO-TROPIN · GENOTROPIN · HUMATROPE · HUMATROPE - 13.3MG · +17 more | 49 | 21 | Yes |
| Somapacitan | SOGROYA | 3 | 3 | Yes |
| Somatrogon | NGENLA | 2 | 2 | Yes |
| Mecasermin | INCRELEX | 1 | 1 | Yes |

| Tesamorelin | EGRIFTA | 2 | 0 | Not in Canada |
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 H01A
| ATC subgroup | Molecules | DINs | Marketed |
|---|---|---|---|
| H01AX | Pegvisomant | 5 | 5 |
| H01AA | Corticotrophin · Tetracosactide | 4 | 1 |
| H01AB | Thyrotrophin Alfa | 1 | 1 |
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.

Nexara Health supplies this product to licensed Canadian buyers — pharmacies, hospitals, clinics, licensed distributors, and clinical trial sponsors or their CROs.

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.
