5 Overview
The Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) operates one of the STRICTEST supplement regulatory systems globally [1]. Products are classified as either 'Listed' (AUST L — lower risk, pre-market assessment of safety and quality) or 'Registered' (AUST R — higher risk, full evaluation including efficacy). Unlike the US system where supplements do not require pre-market approval, ALL therapeutic goods in Australia must be evaluated by TGA before they can be sold [1]. TGA listing requires: evidence of ingredient safety, compliance with manufacturing standards (PIC/S GMP — pharmaceutical-level GMP), and appropriate labeling. TGA conducts post-market surveillance and has authority to order recalls [1]. An AUST L number on a supplement means the Australian government has assessed its safety and quality — a level of regulatory assurance unavailable in most other countries [1].
