undispensed

Never handed out

Undispensed describes something that has not been distributed or given out.

The term appears most often in pharmacy and healthcare contexts, referring to medications that remain in inventory rather than having been provided to patients: The undispensed prescriptions were returned to stock.

It can apply more broadly to anything held back rather than allocated: undispensed funds, undispensed supplies.
