Video: Easing the cancer drug shortage

The FDA reports methotrexate, the drug used to treat children who have a type of leukemia, will be arriving in the U.S. from Australia along with another drug imported from India that?s needed for people suffering from ovarian cancer. NBC?s Nancy Snyderman reports.

>> while we have you, another story has to do with the drug shortages we've been covering.

>> we've been talking a lot. methotrexate, a stop-gap measure today from the fda, they said right now, they're going to bring in emergency samples from australia and another drug used to treat ovarian cancer , bring some medication in from india. it is a crisis. we're just a couple of weeks away from running out of this drug in this country, but nonetheless, until we figure out the manufacturing glitches in this country, it really is a stop-gap measure. at least good news for now.

>> anything to get it to patients. doctor, thank you as
