Evidence note: “Source observed” means MedInfoBase captured the record from an official DRAP source; it does not by itself mean the product registration was independently matched in the DRAP registry. Price note: Unit-price comparisons are informational calculations from official-source pack prices and normalized pack quantities. A pharmacy's transaction price may differ. Verify current regulatory and product information before professional use.
