From 30 November 2023, sports supplements that make claims relating to performance in sport, exercise or recreational activity and are in a medicinal dosage form (i.e. tablet, capsule or pill) will be regulated as therapeutic goods.
This means they must be included in the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG) and will need to meet the applicable legislative requirements for manufacturing, formulation, labelling and evidence. Anyone advertising these products must also comply with the relevant advertising requirements (see Advertising hub).
This completes the three-year transition period of a declaration that was made under subsection 7(1) of the Therapeutic Goods Act 1989 (the Act) on 23 September 2020 that clarified certain sports supplements are to be regulated as therapeutic goods (medicines).
