Minivelle

Minivelle is Noven's small twice-a-week patch. ASHP's shortage bulletin says the Minivelle brand was discontinued in February, while Noven's unbranded version of the same patch is still sold. That version is on intermittent back order with weekly releases, which Noven puts down to higher demand.

Two other makers have patches the FDA rates against Minivelle: Mylan, whose version ASHP lists as available in every strength, and Amneal, whose Lyllana is also listed as available. Mylan's patch is larger than Minivelle at each strength.
