Misoprostol Brand Names in Nigeria

We list 28 Misoprostol products from the NAFDAC Greenbook — Nigeria's official register of approved products — of which 18 have a currently active registration, including 12 combination products that pair Misoprostol with other ingredients. They are produced by manufacturers including Aquatix Pharmaceuticals, Embassy Pharmaceutical and Chemicals, Jeksam Pharmaceuticals, MSI Nigeria Reproductive Choices Ltd/Gte, Pfizer, among others. Combination products, and registrations the Greenbook currently lists as inactive, are clearly marked — Greenbook listings can lag renewals, so always confirm the number printed on the pack. Because it is drawn from the live register, this is far more complete than a typical brand list.

16 companies hold active Misoprostol registrations in the NAFDAC Greenbook. They include MSI Nigeria Reproductive Choices Ltd/Gte, ZMC International, Aquatix Pharmaceuticals, Aurora Pharmaceuticals. The "applicant" recorded in the Greenbook is the registration holder — usually the manufacturer or its Nigerian representative — and the full table above shows the applicant for every registered product.

Each brand here holds a NAFDAC registration in the Greenbook. However, counterfeiters sometimes copy a genuine NAFDAC number onto a fake product, so always confirm that the brand, manufacturer (applicant), and strength printed on the pack match the record before you buy, and purchase only from licensed pharmacies.

Misoprostol brand prices in Nigeria vary by brand, strength, and where you buy it — imported brands are often more expensive than locally manufactured ones. Confirm the current price with a licensed pharmacy, and see the price guide on the main Misoprostol page.
